Snowflakes

Are the kisses of winter.

I only realized this today, walking home while snow was falling.

I’m a winter child. I have always loved winter and especially snow. There is that special smell in the air before it starts falling, crisp and clean, like the snow itself.

Just one more reason to love snow – because it smells right.

But today, walking while snow falls on my face, I realized snowflakes feel like little kisses of winter. They lightly fall on the face and feel like little butterfly caresses all over. I especially enjoyed those touching my eyelashes because nothing can actually touch your eyelashes so softly. And one fell on the top of my nose and remained there as a drop to remind me winter loves to kiss the tip of my nose too.

I can’t help it, I’ve been waiting all winter for snow to fall in Zagreb, and now it did, it feels like a present for my birthday month.

One that came with thousands of winter kisses.

    Happy Birthday, Ines! (Sorry, I’m a couple of days late – I remembered but got distracted with my own celebration).
    I don’t like cold any more. I don’t mind a day or two of winter, and those snowflakes can be just gorgeous but in general I do not miss cold and snow. But, on the other hand, I never experience real Spring any more.
    I hope this month is light and pleasant, and the rest of the year goes from here – with kisses and the weather that you enjoy.

      Thank you! No need to apologize, it’s always nice to get congratulations afterwards, it feels like your birthday lasts longer. 😉
      I hope your year ahead is as good as you wished for mine. Without cold and possibly with at least a day of spring.
