Nature lover, gardener, sometimes writer... loves books, music and a healthy planet. Trying to be the change... not always succeeding.
Autumn joys...

It reminded me of you recently post of a walk along a nearby river...also how you, like me, have a fondness for representations of 'light'.... Hope your week is illuminating, with, even though a rainy time of year, points of light liberally present : ) 💚 Photo is from a recent clear day. #MapleAllée

Welcome, of course, Jenny... Thanks 😊
ee cummings wrote a very special small collection of children's stories... one has a line about, 'A glass of silence and a plate of light.'
Photo is of a planting of Eremurus at a local city cemetery... SO tall + quite special. Wish I had the sun for them. 💚🌿
