Description of a Winter Morning

 sounds:
crunching snow under boots
camera bag slapping hip
flapping of bird wings
squeak of coat as arms move
piles of snow falling to the ground
the quiet that comes with a snowfall

 sights:
flakes falling
footprints in the drifts
black dogs turned white
heaps of snow on every single thing
leaves and sticks poking through their white blanket
gloved hands and booted feet
 tastes:
ice on tongue
winter wind
melting snowflakes on chapped lips
 feelings:
creeping cold down neck
hat holding heat
snowflakes on eyelashes
camera in hands
numbing fingers
red nose
happiness
