#117 - Boxing Day Colours

Today looked so beautiful and sunshiny. Forced myself out of my chocolate-filled cocoon and took the children out to a nearby park. It is rather a dull park. I walked a little by myself while they played and saw some colour over by the fence. I found this very prickly shrub that had some bright leaves tucked in its spiny, evergreen heart - orange, crimson and a deep burgundy. I picked a few and walked back over to the swings, holding my bounty carefully. There is something so amazing about colour, it speaks like music I think, in a way you can't explain.
