Why do I like winter?

Winter has come. It is cold. The earth is covered with deep snowdrifts. Lakes and rivers are frozen over. Trees are wrapped up with the silver shawl. You can not hear the singing of birds. The winter landscape blows emanates the happy and the sad mood at the same time. It is one of the most beautiful seasons of the year. Sometimes the long cold winter evenings seem to be endless. But I do am not afraid to catch a cold.  On the contrary, I feel the a fresh surge of energy. There are a lot of merry entertainments in winter which we do not have in other seasons. We can ski, skate and sledge. A lot of Russia poets were delighted with winter, so they wrote a lot of many wonderful poems. I understand the delight of the poets. The winter landscape always strikes my imagination. Winter is my favorite season because it is wonderful and beautiful in winter. People are often sad. But as for me, every year I wait impatiently for winter because I want to admire once again the splendid winter landscape.

A.  But I do am not afraid to catch a cold.   This sentence means that you are not afraid to get sick with a cold(a disease in English).

B.  But I do am not afraid of the cold.    This sentence means that you are not afraid of the cold weather.       I am not sure which meaning you intended in this sentence, A or B.

Excellent English!  Please teach me to write like this.  I also love to look at the beautiful snow covered landscape.
