Midnight Snowfall

During a midnight snowfall
You hear nothing
Unlike the pitter patter
When it is raining.
During a midnight snowfall
It can't knock you down 
Unlike the merciless wind
That throws you to the ground.
During a midnight snowfall
It is quiet enough for slumber
Unlike the rumble rumble
When there is thunder.
During a midnight snowfall
It is peaceful
Unlike the ripping-crashing
Of a tornado. 
During a midnight snowfall
There's a happy ending
Unlike the heartbreaking damage
Brought by a hurricane.
During a midnight snowfall 
There are no violent winds causing ice burns
Unlike its reckless brother
The frostbiting blizzard
It may be freezing
You may not like the weather
But wouldn't you prefer a midnight snowfall
Over other natural disasters?
