Snow covers all

the tall grass along the side of the road

looks like little animals with white tufts puffed up

the dead trees are covered

with white icing

and the houses take on a fairy tale look

as snow builds on their roofs

it is a magical time

when snow falls

the ground snaps

the roads slip

the car windows fog up

but people still go out

to purchase goods but mainly

just to see the snow

and how it transformed an average day
