Breathing with severity, thrashing with force, delivering its anguish upon those bewildered in its midst.
The coldness grips ignoring futile layers, shudders and shivers, accompanying fogged, and blazed surfaces.
The wind pauses to take a break, from thrusting all that treds its way.
Forgetting its nature, I lose my sense of reality, marvelling the touch of whiteness, the tender scenery, whilst allowing shivers to embrace me.
I breath with a cold, chilling air, managing a smile, standing upon ice cold ground whilst my hands bare the brunt of my desire. I see, all white before me; snowed layers, foggy visions cooling the earth from the summer just gone, placing at bay the overburnt exposed nature, taming its creatures to follow suit.
I shudder, as the coldness reminds me that I am still standing in open air. I walk towards my cottage door, it swings open with ease; a swift of warm heat mixed with cinnamon aroma pulls me towards it, I stop, and turn back to inhale a final view;
I whisper, welcome cold season, welcome.
Sobia

Hey there Old Sport! I’m K&L, the Author, Publisher & CEO of The Millionaire’s Digest, I just want to apologize for not being able to publish all the articles fast enough on The Millionaire’s Digest. Believe me, when you’re in college and you’re up past midight writing papers every night, you know how hard it can be to also run a team of more than 300+ people who are constantly uploading posts every day. That brings me to my next point Old Sport.
I would just like to ask you before I get ready to have our magazine published if you would still like to be in it. I mean, I don’t want you to feel like I’m forcing you to do this because I know I wouldn’t like it if someone made me do something I didn’t want to do either. But I mean, I just wanted to make sure because you are one of my team members, and I just didn’t want you to feel left out when you see it go live in all the stores!
Also, please know that if you do choose to do this, you do this for yourself, not me. I do perfectly fine for an individual, as you know that I could’ve launched this myself and not let anyone on it. But I’m not that type of person (Nor will I ever will be). This is just something that I want to be able let you guys do, so I can help you get more exposure to your blog!
Sincerely,
K&L

Winter has its own wonders and magical moments.
You see in UK, our weather has a mood of its own and it fails to follow the season pattern. Few days it will do hot and a day later the temperature just drops, low and behold it’s snowing.
I must agree with you, the first fresh snow is always the best, especially when it’s untouched D you place your fine personal marks to let other know you had already enjoyed the joys of snow.
