Life

 

A blanket of fresh white snow covered the neighborhood.  It was as if someone had hit the mute button on life.  It was so quiet and peaceful.  Any leaves that hadn’t fallen already now landed on the blanket and slid across the top, like a kid on a sled. 

Two streets over the lake had disappeared, along with the sidewalks and skateboarding children.  Some of the windows in the homes frosted up and several chimneys puffed smoke up into the cold chill of winter. 

A grade 4 teacher scolded little Norman Rockwell for looking out the window and daydreaming.
