Snow

I used to think that snow was so beautiful. It is in fact beautiful but not for long. In New Mexico it snows and it's beautiful but it melts. It snowed last week on Valentines Day and there is still snow...EVERYWHERE! It doesn't melt here. It gets piled up into giant snow mountains in parking lots and on the side of the road and then it gets dirty and black and honestly kind of ugly. I think I prefer it at home where it melts the very next day. It leaves you eagerly awaiting the next storm. It leaves you without resentment towards the winter weather. And it leaves me with one more reason to love my home state.
