You Are Entering A Winter Wonderland...

Winter Wonderland: A Descriptive Writing
Presly Phillips

Underneath you is fluffy, cold snow. The sounds of slush fill your ears. You watch as the misty fog escapes your mouth anytime you take a breath. Every time you inhale a frigid prickle enters your lungs and every time you exhale the heat from your breath warms your lips. Around you are naked trees covered in powder white snow. Glistening icicles hang off the branches like bats. The snow sparkles as it's frozen to branches; creating a Winter Wonderland.Although the beautiful sight makes you want to stay, you know you must be on your way...

Because your nose is as red as Rudolph and your cheeks have taken the color of a rose. The air is frigid and nippy. Your fingers and toes feel numb and are beginning to ache. Your ears feel the prickling cold through a hat that is beginning to itch. You take one last deep breath and the bitter cold air enters your lungs. The watery smell of the snow fills your nose and now you must head home.

At home, you start a fire...

You watch it light up with orange flames. You listen to fire crackling and smell a sweet aroma of burning wood. You sit close to the fire and let it warm your hands. You feel a tingling feeling as the fire warms your body. You make yourself a hot chocolate and throw in some marshmallows. In your mug is melted cocoa with soft pillows floating in the chocolate. The chocolate smell fills your nose as you taste the mouthwatering beverage. You wrap yourself in a fuzzy fleece blanket. Your body warms up and the feeling of coziness washes over you. Content and comfort fill your senses, leaving you in awe.
