Again, there was no words… Only a quiet sense of space, and the gently falling rain. Another image, of the profusion of buds on what I think might be primrose, but I’m not sure.

Day 75 – Back Deck Bench
I sat outside as the rain fell steadily on the roof of the back veranda. But… for the first time, there was no words, so there’s no voice recording. There was just a sense of the space that surrounded me. And all was quiet. So instead of words, I share the image of this wet […]

Day 69 – Back Deck Bench
It’s a perfect sunny day, bright blue sky, gentle breeze, singing birds, the whole deal. On the peach tree, the little flowers have turned into fuzzy peach buds. Summer is definitely on its way.
