A DAY OFF

How precious a day off is, and thanks to two President's past I have one today! No shady rill for me today, it is close to zero degrees. The cold, cold wind wraps around you as you walk outside, whispering in your ear of the dangers it holds. But it is sparkling out there, the very essence of winter. The ice shines like crystals reflecting the prizms of light it catches from the cool white sun.
This is why I love those wonderful Victorian paper ornaments of people wrapped in white ermine and dusted with glitter. This is the world of Winter in all her glory. Cool, irridescent and deadly. Nature cleansing herself. Global warming today, seems very far away!
