A FLOOD OF ICE

As I drove home last night in the dark, I saw the eeriness of frozen snow. Never having lived in this climate before I was unaware that snow would look different when ice was added. It melts a bit. It all gets smooth and slick. Like a frosty frozen glass surface. When light hits it in the dark it looks like water. As I drove through the counrtryside last night all the snow covered fields looked flooded. I knew it was just icy snow, yet each time I saw a new slick surface, the panic of flash flooding ripped through me.
Winder is beautiful. I am ready for warmer weather though.
