The Snowflake Blanket

6 min 23 sec

On a snowy day the world turns white and quiet like it is wrapped in a cozy blanket.
Little Mira watches from her bedroom window as fat flakes drift past the glass.

Each flake looks like a tiny star that forgot to shine at night.
She presses her palms to the window and feels the coolness seep into her skin.

The town below has vanished beneath a soft quilt of snow.
Chimneys puff gentle clouds that mingle with the falling flakes.

Mira slips into her wool coat and red mittens.
She tiptoes past the sleeping cat and opens the front door with a gentle click.

Outside the air feels crisp and tastes like peppermint.
Her boots sink with a soft hush that sounds like the earth is sighing.

She walks to the maple tree where a single leaf still clings.
The leaf trembles but does not fall, as if the tree wants to keep one memory of autumn.

Mira brushes snow from the lowest branch and discovers a tiny nest.
Inside the nest three sleeping sparrows huddle close together.

Their feathers puff out so they look like three warm muffins.
Mira smiles because they seem peaceful even in the cold.

She whispers a promise to bring seeds when the storm ends.
A breeze stirs the branches and snowflakes swirl around her like glitter.

She sticks out her tongue and catches one flake that melts into cool sweetness.
The quiet feels like a secret shared only with her.

She walks farther down the lane past the baker’s shop.
The windows glow golden and she smells cinnamon drifting beneath the door.

She imagines Mr.
Luca inside kneading dough with gentle hands.

The snow muffles every footstep so she feels like a floating cloud.
At the village fountain she stops to watch the water.

The fountain still flows though icicles fringe its rim.
The water sings a soft trickling song that mixes with the hush of snow.

Mira kneels and cups her mittens under the stream.
The water feels alive and bright against her wool.

She drinks and the cold spreads through her like starlight.
Overhead a lone dove circles twice then lands beside her.

It coos once, soft and low, before tucking its head beneath a wing.
Mira understands the bird trusts the calm of this white morning.

She stands and brushes snow from her knees.
She decides to follow the little path that leads toward the woods.

The path is hidden but she knows it by heart from summer walks.
Each step takes her deeper into hush where even her thoughts feel softer.

Snowflakes land on her eyelashes and blur the world into gentle shapes.
She blinks and sees the outline of the old stone bridge ahead.

The bridge arches over a frozen brook that glimmers beneath the snow.
She steps onto the bridge and hears the stones humming faintly.

They hold memories of travelers who crossed for a hundred years.
She places her mitten on the cold stone and feels the humming settle into her bones.

The bridge seems to breathe beneath her, slow and steady like a sleeping giant.
Across the bridge the woods open into a clearing where moonlight touches the snow.

The clearing looks like a silver lake that never needs waves.
In the center stands a single evergreen draped with fresh white stars.

Mira walks to the tree and circles it once.
Beneath its branches she finds a circle of animal tracks.

Tiny paw prints weave a pattern like delicate lace.
She imagines foxes dancing while the snow kept falling to hide their secret.

She kneels and presses her own print beside them.
Now her mark joins the quiet celebration.

The tree above drops a small branch heavy with snow.
Mira catches it and shakes the snow onto the ground.

The needles release a sharp sweet scent of pine and winter.
She inhales and feels her chest grow lighter than the air.

Snow begins to fall again, slower now, each flake spinning like a ballerina.
She opens her mouth and catches another flake on her tongue.

This one tastes of sky and distance and the hush before dreams.
She closes her eyes and listens to the silence layering itself upon the world.

When she opens them the clearing seems brighter though the clouds remain.
She realizes the snow itself glows, holding whatever light touches it.

The dove from the fountain lands on a branch above her.
It preens its feathers and watches her with round gentle eyes.

Mira feels certain the bird has followed to share this moment.
She thanks it with a nod and turns toward home.

The walk back feels shorter because the snow has packed her footprints into a guide.
Village lights twinkle ahead like candles on a cake.

She passes the fountain where the dove returns to drink.
The baker’s door opens just as she walks by and Mrs.

Luca offers her a warm bun.
Mira accepts with grateful hands and tucks it into her pocket for later.

The maple tree stands quiet now, its single leaf finally released.
The leaf rests on top of the snow like a tiny boat on white waves.

Mira picks it up and carries it home as a souvenir of the morning.
Inside the house the cat stretches and yawns without worry.

Mira removes her coat and mittens and places the leaf on the windowsill.
She presses her palm to the cool glass once more.

Outside the snow continues to fall, wrapping the world in its gentle blanket.
She climbs the stairs and slips into bed still tasting peppermint and pine.

Her heart feels soft and steady like the hush outside her window.
As she drifts to sleep she hears the dove coo one last time from the eaves.

The sound is soft enough to fold into her dreams.
She smiles because she knows tomorrow the snow will still be there, waiting to share more quiet wonders.
