Here at Walker Fold
.
Earth your expanse unfolds before me across Bolton to the hills beyond, it is wonderful.
.
Leaning in I see your newly planted woodland.
.
Listing gratitude for the wind blowing through the grasses, short white clover and tall pink thistles. The bees love these flowers.
.
Offering my afternoon.

Here looking through my window.
Earth I see only the rosebuds at the top of the bush.
Leaning in I know they are full of promise and yet I must accept them as they are today.
Listing gratitude for the book I am reading, my friend who sent it to me and the moment I took to look out of the window.
Offering small moments .

There is a streak of blue in the sky today
it is so much nicer than endless blue
it changes shape as the clouds move along
giving differing brightness and a different view
and if there is anything I need in my life just now
it is to move towards something new.

blushing pink balsam
invades our foxgloves
chokes our willow herb
non native plant
showing no
embarrassment

Wind

rushing wind you
set everything dancing
thoughts tumbling
eyes sparkling
.
I am drawn to you
with hair ruffling
happily smiling
and breathing
.
just breathing

Here I am talking to a tree.
.
Earth its young growth dances freely while the dark of age is deep within its crown.
.
Leaning in I see branches supporting its different parts.
.
Listing gratitude for my support system, fresh new thoughts and the freedom to dance if I wish.
.
Offering my youthful memories and my autumn years to make more.
