A falling flake hits the ground.

Blankets of white powder tuck mountains to bed.
Minute snowflakes decorate a lonely and bare tree.
Moonlight bounces off the snow and illuminates the wilderness.
A fox scampers, leaving nothing but paw prints behind.
A stealthy owl swoops down and snatches a mouse.

Silence

The sun peaks through the frosty white trees.
Snow sparkles in the warming sunlight.
A snoozing bird covered in snow appears as if it were a snowball.
The scent of freshness fills the outdoors.
Temperatures begin to rise.
The snow melts like a popsicle on a hot day.
Frozen flakes are turned to slippery slush.
The ground soaks up the moisture like a sponge.
Mountains, trees, and animals no longer have pure white blankets.

The snow has vanished.
