"Hey, if raindrops are tears, what are snowflakes?"

"Kisses."

"Kisses?"

"Yeah. You know, softly falling, gently melting under warmth."

"You have a point. But what about blizzards then? I wouldn't call that falling softly."

"Blizzards would be the sort of kiss that blocks out the world, to the point where there's nothing but the kiss."

Laughter. "You're a romantic, you know that?"

"I prefer to call myself a realist with romantic thoughts. Like, raindrops are the tears of Sky when it misses Earth. And snowflakes are its reminder to Earth that they are still in love."

"So, the earth and sky are in love, are they?"

"Well, yeah. Don't laugh; it's a sad relationship. They can't ever touch."

"But between them is everything living; doesn't that make up for it? And what about lightning?"

"What about lightning?"

"Well, lightning is when electricity from the ground is drawn up into the sky, right? So for some infinitesimal second, they're connected directly. There's also birds, you know, making a nest in the ground and flying up into the sky."

Chuckle. "You're a bit of a romantic yourself, aren't you?"

Secret smile. "Indeed I am."

"Some sort of closet romantic then? You don't often show it."

"Well, I would only be a romantic with the person I love."

"How would you show it?"

"Show what?"

"Your love."

"I'd give them a snowflake everyday."

"Just one?"

"As many as they wish."

"So, if I asked you for a snowflake...?"

"I would give you as many as you wished."
It snowed. A proverbial winter wonderland, plus an overcast sky~ i really didn't mean for this to end up as romantic as it did XD
