Blinded by the night.
Guided by the plink of water
Falling into water.
The rain softly plays
A xylophone to entice
The dawn.
The rooks listen
And wait.

St Gobnait, a 6th-century saint, celebrated on 11th February, was born in Co. Clare, and later established her convent in Ballyvourney. She is the patron saint of bees, and legend says she defended her community by turning marauders away with swarms of bees.

Interesting question I’ve been musing on. What in my life kept coming forward with love, nourishment etc, again and again, in energy, activities etc even when I planned differently?

Funny how everything I jotted down has very little to do with what we would term normal success measures.

The difference between looking and seeing- I was familiar to these bird drawings on one of the pillars of Göbekli Tepe but never thought that they were bustards! Of course they are!😃
