It snows all the day today.
First snow this year. It is very dense,
the flakes are so fluffy, so big
and so light at the same time.
Everything is bewitched with their slow hypnotizing move.
I can recall scenes of my childhood.
Skiing, skating, sledging.
Snowballs and snow fortresses.
Much noise and laughter.
Wet clothes and chilly fingers.
Christmas tree, the smell of tangerines,
sweets and gifts. Illuminations and fireworks,
ice slides, diving snowdrifts from the woodshed.
Much laughter, frost and sun.
Wet clothes and chilly fingers, nose and cheeks.
It snows all the day today. And I suppose
all that was just an old forgotten fairy tale
which I had dreamt through the blue window
while magic huge snowflakes were falling down,
for a short while covering the present and the future and the past.
When The Trees Were Tall
