God's icing on earth - SNOW!

 After many years, Zurich saw about a feet or two of heavy snowfall in day. In a few hours, Zurich and around were transformed from a desolate gray in to a luminous winter wonderland. Some makeover!

The beauty both breathless and serene, the air so fresh.. the trees bending under the weight of snowfall like a heavy fruit laden branch.. the white of the snow so bright, so luminous.. what magic! Such a pristine, pure sight to behold! Just seeing the snow, feeling it in the hands and just being with it.. a silent communion with Nature and God! The stillness so poignant!

There are times when I think God or the higher intellect shows his/her hand in overt ways (usually this is subtle like a bud blooming) and snow is always one such experience! I feel God is playing with his sieve, dusting icing sugar on planet earth, one of his play times..

We humans can at best capture these moments and bow in humility to the creator above, the artist who with a few strokes can create such magic! For the love showered! And for the smiles it brings to everyone! Is there anyone untouched by this beauty!
