A winter chill brings a tear to the eye

Wind bites and burns extremities

Frost exacerbates old injuries

Flakes fall like frosted angel feathers

Dancing upon the wind in intricate patterns

A magical waltz coming from the heavens

Turns the familiar landscape into a foreign land

A new territory to explore

Soft virgin hills pure and unmarked

It brings an ingrained infant joy from the back of my mind

It is a yearly time machine that thrusts us into past years of childhood

Temporarily transporting me to a surreal world.
