Winter wears a gown of crystal and lace woven with ice and snow; and life shelters in place when Her frigid winds start to blow. She blankets all in a white duvet soon as the songbirds have flown away, yet, some of the hardiest of birds opt to stay. Snowflakes confetti the ground, silently falling without a sound; fluttering and tumbling all around. While yule logs crackle in the fireplace, in Winter’s Garden, naught will grow and children gather indoors to play, a little sad, and yet, come spring, spirits rebound.

Lovely, and this SOUNDS like snowflakes to me: " Snowflakes confetti the ground, silently falling without a sound; fluttering and tumbling all around." Until now, Emile, I had no idea they have a sound. But they do.
