first snow....

First Snow by Linear Edges

The first snow of the year is always exciting to me. Even if it is only a couple flakes. The photographer Linear Edges took this photo of the first snow of the year, which was also his daughter's very first snow ever. I guess we don't remember our first first snow, and we probably do not realize the moment when we are seeing our last first snow... maybe it's important to notice the first snow of every year, and feel it's joy.

First white snow of fall
Just enough to bend
The leaves
Of faded daffodils.
