            The snow is a rare guest,
            almost an urban legend
            that we wait for every winter
            without truly believing in it.
            But that night,
            against all odds,
            the miracle happened.
            The Silence of the Loire Banks
            The snow fell
            without a sound,
            as if the cities
            had decided
            to speak in a lower voice.
            The parks, usually so lively,
            draped themselves in an
            immaculate white coat.
            The sounds of the road
            faded away,
            giving way to a
            hushed, almost surreal atmosphere.
            On the sidewalk,
            footsteps are slowly imprinted.
            They are the fragile traces
            of a moment that asks
            for nothing more than to be lived.
            A Suspended Moment
            Under the streetlights,
            the night becomes more tender.
            The orange light gives
            pearly reflections to the snow.
            The cold stings a little,
            but for some, it awakens
            buried memories:
            longer winters,
            rare snowball fights
            in schoolyards,
            numb hands, and
            red cheeks.
            In the towns and the countryside,
            this scene seems frozen in time:
            A child playing,
            trying to catch
            the flakes with her tongue.
            Another resting,
            snuggled in her grandfather's arms,
            watching the spectacle
            with wide eyes.
            And the heart gives thanks in silence.
            Peace.
            In these cities, usually
            so busy, time has stopped.
            No need for everyone
            to be there, no need
            for everything to be perfect.
            Just the snow.
            Just this moment
            suspended between the river and the sky.
            People stop for a moment
            to watch
            the flakes dancing in the beam of light.
            There is the certainty
            that in the midst of daily chaos,
            there are still
            moments where everything grows still.

@ EricKlein279  I apologize for my English translation; as I haven’t practiced the language in a long time, please forgive any mistakes (I hope I haven’t made too many errors in syntax or spelling):
            
            Introduction : 
            The snow fell without a sound, as if the world had decided to speak in a lower voice.

            The cold stings a little,

            longer winters,
            children's laughter,
            numb hands,
            and red cheeks.

            There are children playing,
            others resting,
            and hearts giving thanks
            in silence.
            No need for everyone
            to be there,
            no need for everything
            to be perfect.
            Just the snow.
            Just this suspended moment.
            And the certainty
            that in the midst of chaos,
            there are still moments
            where everything grows still.
