White
Gray
Black
Sprinkles of snow
One week later
Cold

Breath unfurls from lips that whispered
Excitement flushes through already
Reddened cheeks
The chill inhaled returns as smoke

Sleet decorates town into a fantasyland
Where angels are made
And children turn into eskimos
Until the call of hot chocolate is too tempting to resist

Sweater upon sweater
Upon layer upon layer
New boots are quickly worn
And the cool hurries along

I can&#039;t remember it clearly, but it went something like this:<br /> <br /> &quot;The past is the past, the future is the furture. But now, now is like a gift, which is why it is called present.&quot;
