A Book of the Seasons: January 20.

January 20.

To see the sun rise
or go down every day
full of news to me.
January 20, 1852

It requires more 

than a day's devotion to

know and to possess 

the wealth of a day,

to see sunrise and sunset

full of news to me.

January 20, 1852

The green of the ice
begins to be visible
just before sunset.
January 20, 1859

A Book of the Seasons, by Henry Thoreau
"A book, each page written in its own season,
out-of-doors, in its own locality.”
