The other day, I was taking my daily walk through the fields and woods about an hour and a half after the sunrise. There had been a light frost and the grass and fallen leaves were covered in white crystals. In the illumination of the early morning sun, the ground was aglow with color…blues, reds, purples, silver diamonds and golden sparkles everywhere I looked. The effect was intoxicating and magical. After stopping and taking in the beauty before me, I continued on my walk but turned to look back on the breathtaking sight, wanting to hold that image longer. However, when I looked back, I just saw wet grass and dead leaves.
