December Snow

It has finally begun to snow here. There is something about December snow that uplifts and brightens my mood. Perhaps it is a holdover from childhood, when snow was a magical thing and a joy to behold. There is a line in "Frosty the Snowman" that goes, "Christmas snow is magical snow. There is nothing like it."
Snow brings out the child in me like nothing else. I immediatly get happy and want to catch snowflakes on my tongue. It chases away, albeit for a brief time, the cares and worries of adult life and gives me a brief moment of childhood happiness.
Thank you God for December snow. Thank you for the reminder of simpler times and simpler joys. Thank you for the reminder that you are never too old to catch snowflakes on your tongue. :)
