London Snow
In London's heart, when winter whispers low, The city streets with soft white snow aglow. Iconic reds now veiled in pristine white, A hushed metropolis in the moon's soft light. The Thames reflects a cold and starry sky, As snowflakes dance, and city sounds die. The Tower Bridge, in snowy splendor dressed, Stands proudly, in winter's embrace caressed. Through cobbled lanes, where history breathes deep, The snow lays secrets that the city keeps. Each flake, a story from the ages past, In London's arms, they find their home at last. The bustling crowds now silent, slow, and rare, As snowflakes waltz in the cool, crisp air. In London's heart, a peaceful scene bestowed, A timeless tale in every snowflake sowed.

Inspirations Behind
As I wrote “London Snow,” I was inspired by my memories of London during winter. The way the snowflakes seemed to quiet the usual city bustle, turning familiar streets into scenes from a storybook, always stayed with me. The contrast between the historic architecture and the ephemeral beauty of the snow created a sense of wonder and nostalgia. I wanted to capture that enchanting silence, the soft blanket of snow turning a busy city into a peaceful winter wonderland, reminding us of the serene beauty hidden in everyday moments.
