First walk of the new year

I went for my first stroll of the new year this morning. The sun was out and the skies clear, and a chilly wind blew across my face from the west. The ground felt hard and frozen underfoot, the grass bristling and wispy depending on the spot; its hue ranging from dull green to straw-gold. Overhead, the bare branches of trees clacked and creaked in the morning breeze.

The sunshine felt warming and wholesome, and by walk's end I was feeling chipper and satisfied. Starting the new year with a walk turned out to be a good idea.

The frozen blossom
Delights in a new year's sun;
A slight snatch of Spring.

Happy Thursday :)
