As the snow settles, I sit by the fire listening to the silence of winter hush. Trees dipped in snow-like crystals and candlelights aglow add a cozy ambiance to the indoor scene I created. Looking outward through the dual fireplace, I revel in the beauty of fallen snow asleep in hiemal slumber. I search YouTube and find a soothing video, Winter Solace, that adds to the ambiance. Meditative music floats through the air as I read a thought to ponder:
"It's time to appreciate the simple, yet profound beauty of a snowy landscape."
I wonder and write, calling up my 2022 one little word, appreciate.
seasonal solace
powdered confection and frost
stilled apricity
feel the gentle warmth of sun
appreciate winter's peace

Have you thought about the soundless pattern of falling snow? May Novala Takemoto's beautiful quote, "Snow falling soundlessly in the middle of the night will always fill my heart with sweet clarity," bring you solace.
