Describe your perfect day
You should mention
Where you would spend your perfect day.
What you would do.
Who you would spend it with?
My perfect day would be spent alone because I am fortunate enough to be happy with my own company. My perfect day would be a winter’s day at the end of December. I would wake early and find my bedroom filled with light from the snow that had fallen silently throughout the night. It would still be quite early and therefore not many people would have been walking on and spoiling the fresh snow. That would be my job.
I would go downstairs and have hot buttered toast and coffee then get myself ready to go outside. I would wrap up warm with the help of a thick scarf, gloves and hat.
I would leave the house and set off to the river that is not far from where I live. By now the snow would be really quite deep making my legs ache as I try to walk through it. No one else would have taken this route yet so the snow would be pure white and glistening. The snow will be very crunchy under my feet and everything will look so different covered in a beautiful white blanket. Because of the depth of the snow it will take me ages to reach the river and when I get there it won’t even look like a river. The reason for this is that the river will be frozen over and covered in snow giving it the appearance of a path or road. Perhaps I’ll even spot a Heron on the riverbank looking down toward the frozen river wondering where it was going to get its breakfast.
I would walk the length of the riverbank looking at the trees and bushes. The falling snow would give the impression that everything had been edged with silver. It would be so quiet and peaceful and for sure after I had walked the length of the river I would cross the bridge and walk back on the far bank. It goes without saying that I wouldn’t meet anybody else walking which would give me the feeling that I was the only person left in the world.
I would be secretly hoping that it would snow really hard and maybe even turn in to a blizzard. It would turn the trip home into an adventure, as the snow got deeper and deeper. I would be an Artic Explorer finding my way home.
When I eventually reach home I would light a fire and then sit down in front of it with a mug of hot chocolate and a toasted teacake.
Yes this would be my perfect day and I would go to bed that night feeling very happy and contented.
