Snow Storm
By Robert Patinson The land was white and freezing cold the snow had PHOTO come and taken hold. PLACE HERE, A blizzard moved in from the north OTHERWISE DELETE BOX and told the flurries to go forth. A howling sound brings with it chills, frozen words drift through the hills. The trees wear coats of fluffy snow, the lands so bright it seems to glow. Snowflakes drifted down from the sky whipped by the wind in swirls they fly. A light and freezing screen they form, the blizzard grows into a storm.
