New Year day Hike
As little flurries swirl around I extend out through the longest reach of my fingers to catch the wind harnessing the energy of this midday glory
My feet taking me upon this path of gratitude traversing me to the utmost beauty around me
A snowflake upon the tip of my nose makes me smile
Tears swimming in my eyes for immense joy, the gladness I feel
My mind wondering as I wander if this is truly solitude, when I am sharing space, with the sheer magnitude and force of mother Earth
Happy New Year to me and the path that is before me
