Snow day

A German song came to mind today that I remember singing as a little girl around the Christmas season.    

"Leise rieselt der Schnee..."    

The snow falling softly outside mimicked the words of the song and the memory along with the beautiful quiet that descended in a blanket of white.  It took me to a happy and peaceful place.

How wonderful it is to be basking in the kindness of nature so selflessly revealing its beauty to us.
