We recently had a snowstorm here in the Northwest, and the grounds looked like a winter wonderland. I, for one, was glad it did snow because my characters in my novel play in the snow. And this snow storm gave me the opportunity to do firsthand research.
I read that the Eskimos have at least 100 words for snow. I can understand why they would have a hundred words for it. I don’t know what their words were, but let me give you a handful from my day in playing in the snow.
All the different types of snow
Playful snow
The snow that doesn’t stick to the ground
Pure white snow
The snow that sticks to the ground
Crystal cold snow
Powdery snow
Feeling the lightness of powdery snow
The snow that is light that I felt like I stepped inside a cloud
Crunch, crunch, crunch snow
Snow that is hard that I felt like it was gravel
Crisp snow
Snow that turns to slush when the rain falls
Cold numbing snow
Snow that doesn’t melt when the rain comes
Snow that that melts went the sun shines
Happy snow
Snow that makes bare trees look dressed up
Snow falling, winter wonderland
Snow that breaks twigs
Snow that keeps coming down
Snow that buries the chairs in the patio, making it disappear underneath the snow
Snow that makes ducks still swim like ducks
Snow that makes me want to build a snowman
Snow that makes me want to have snowball fight
Snow that makes me slide down the hill
Snow that makes me want to drink hot chocolate
Snow that makes warm memories
Snow that makes bring people outside
Snow that is quiet
Snow that is beautiful
Snow that is still magical
