Each day is a meditation on the beauty and wonder that surround us. Most of all, it's about love.
Winter reminder
Be so still
you hear
the beech leaves
tell stories
of their life
clinging in death.
Sometimes when I'm out for a walk on a winter's day, it's so still I can hear the snow squeak. So when there's a breeze and the beech leaves rustle, it's a rude shock. The beech trees around here keep their dead, bronzed leaves all winter. I don't know why they do that, but they're a reminder that nature is beautiful, even in death. Indeed, perhaps for nature, death is beautiful too.

What should I do,how shall I plan,what will I solvein my made-up life? —while you followa thistle seedon a breeze,in the sun. This is another one inspired by Rufus the puppy. There I was one day walking him, my head full of stuff - so much so that I wasn't really present. Rufus, on the other hand, is always present and a floating thistle seed caught his eye. And that caught my eye, snapping me back into the world.
