Then, now out of the grey sky snow started to pour down in the form of fine white powder. Originally it looked like grey powder from burnt coal at first, but as the pieces released themselves theatrically, one could identify what they actually were: snow in summer.
Children were the first to take notice, having gasped in awe, they started holding out their hands in an attempt to catch the snow flake. As if this is possible they shouted and ran through the streets, joyfully laughing all this summer snow time. This made the adults to emulate the kids by stepping out of their homes and shops to watch what they considered as a miracle.
Before everyone knew it, the snow gently fell and blanketed the town, the entire town was instantly dazzled, as if to bring winter in the middle of summer. Children made snowmen near the flowers, and young men engaged in snow ball fights in the town centre. It was like two seasons has met in a way that I have only seen in movies or read in books.
Nobody could realize when and how it happened. Others claimed that it had been brought from the mountains, in order to preserve a note of the fairy tale left in the world. Some thought that it was an element of good omen, a possessiveness that their town was unique, in forms were they had not grapsed it.
