Another cold, clear day, but the weather gradually moderating.

H. D. Thoreau, Journal, February 27, 1855

Another cold, clear day, but the weather gradually moderating. See February 28, 1855 ("Still cold and clear. Ever since the 23d inclusive a succession of clear but very cold days. . . . Since the 25th it has been very slowly moderating.") See also January 31, 1855 ("A clear, cold, beautiful day.") and  A Book of the Seasons, by Henry Thoreau, The world can never be more beautiful than now.

The week ahead in Henry’s journal
A journal, a book that shall contain a record of all your joy.
"A stone fruit. Each one yields me a thought." ~ H. D. Thoreau, March 28, 1859


I sit on this rock
wrestling with the melody
that possesses me.
