Snow

Furiously the flakes fell, thickly coating all they touched, breaking branches with their weight. Yet still relentlessly the snow cascaded seemingly ever thicker. Freezing temperatures with icy fingers that turned all they touched into frozen statues. Ponds with ice two feet thick encouraging the skaters to swirl, twirl and circle freely. Flurry huge flakes that formed deep drifts some topping out at fifteen feet barriers. Suffocating sheep and many others with its cold relentless arms of purpose. For now Winter reins in supremacy killing of the weak sending some into hibernation seeking relief from the biting bitter cold. Furnaces blaze and their flames dance throwing out some warmth and comfort, bringing a reminder that soon Spring will once more walk our lands.
