A wonderful day. Clouds break early and by noon the sky is clear. Spring like feeling. At evening an electric chill in the air as of early March or February dusks.
Evening to Austins - Wagner. Schuberts Serenade War-cry of Brunhilde stirs a tumult: within me. Walk home. Waning moon high in a crisp-sparkled sky. Cold star-snapped air - a cold tingle on the cheeks. Light-lit, breezed waved willows over Doan brook beatiful.
Charles E. Burchfield, Nov 6, 1914
