Ice and Snow

glittering snow falls covering the earth in white making her bridal Gently yet persistently the snow falls cloaking all in a white veil. Monstrous drifts block roads and paths. How can people get to the church? The pastor waits wringing his hands in despair. Soon the people arrive in sledges and snowshoes. The bride no longer sparkling white, her gown is torn and dirty from the journey. Today only one bride is glistening and shining as more flakes fall clothing earth in pristine white, yet she has no groom to wed. icicles are forming growing in all shapes and sizes dangling sparkle With time they grow longer and thicker. Forming many weird shapes. At last a man of ice is born and quickly the pastor says the vows ice and snow are joined and forever united. As for the other bride she also said her vows and lived happily soon forgetting it had not been perfect. ice and snow are wed together they form glistening gems emitting pure white

what a most interesting story you have crafted wedding ice and snow and bride to groom. Reminding me of how the old fashioned rural marriages must have been done. I sure enjoyed this one, shadow. Great descriptive writing.
