Complete step by step answer :

There is an old proverb that says ‘Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.’ I am in the habit of getting up early in the morning and have formed the habit of walking long morning walks from the past two years. The morning air which is fresh and pure is beneficial for the lungs. The early rays of the rising Sun are good for healthy skin. ‘Health is wealth' and Doctors also recommend 'morning walk' to their patients for gaining sound health and freshness of energy. And a distance of about one kilometre from my house there is a big park. Along with my neighborhood friend, I cover the distance. We jog in winters and walk easily in summers. Walking through the city in the early hours of the morning, one gets to see a totally different view of nature. Lucknow at 6 a.m. is completely different from Lucknow at 12p.m. I walk for at least 2-3 km from my house to the park. I cross through a lot of markets, bazaars, and shopping complexes at the normal hour of the day and it takes at least 20 minutes or even more to reach there, even when I am driving a two-wheeler. At 6 a.m. there is a quietness prevailing in the entire area. Two or more street dogs can be seen near the garbage heaps looking for crumbs thrown by the people the night before. One or two auto-rickshaws can be seen flying on the road. It seems people traveling via rail or bus have moved out early from their houses to catch their transport well in time. Near a crossing, I was lucky to escape colliding with a car moving at a breakless speed. I was moving at the side of the road but since it was foggy and the car was at high speed, the driver missed seeing the cow crossing the road to save from collision; he swerved the car to his left and missed hitting me by a few inches. I yelled a full mouthful of obscenities at him and at the same time thanked God that I was safe. The park was just around 100 meters and I could hear the chirping of the birds, parrots. Pigeons were flying from one branch of a tree to another. Amidst the sheet of thin white fog, the colorful flowers in the park gave solace to the heart and were a feast to the eyes. The fragrance of the sweet-smelling flowers filled my mind with a freshness that cannot be compared to anything in the world. The park was filled with people of various age groups. The cold winter had not prevented these health-conscious individuals to stay back in their cozy beds and to put off going for the morning walk, which is the most important nutrient for the human body. The pure fresh air of the morning devoid of the poisonous gases inhaled by the innumerable vehicles running to and fro in the city streets gives a boost to the body to battle the day's hectic schedule. Words are insufficient to describe the feeling of walking in the morning. One must go for a morning walk to experience the great feeling.

Note: There are four modes in composition writing: description, narration, exposition, and argumentation. One must follow these modes in order to write a perfect composition.
