Likened to my Soul:
Furrowed trunk
Weathered and aged with years
The essence of its strength within anchored in life,
Nourished by its roots of its surrounding life experiences.
Its branches seeking light and substance to nourish its spirit
Remaining firm and upright guided by its sprit within
Be brave and endure the wintering and weathering of its
survival
endurance is the key.
A most beautiful delightful gift I received from my daughter was a small pillow and pillowcase she had made for me out of nature fabric, The fabric is bright and bold with colourful songbirds on it; such as red Cardinals, Blue birds, Blue Jays and Chickadees. She also has given me a swatch of the fabric. She says it is a fabricville piece. I shall go looking for it as oit is a 'must have' beauty that would warm the heart of any birdwatcher.
L is for light , a reflection of our Christmas tree lights on our windows looking outside just before real natural light has developed for the day The movement of the colours hold it all! "excitement of the season".
As this is theSanta Season we see that red-coated gift giver everywhere. We have 5 little believers in out family and its exciting to talk with out hopeful grandchildren on the telephone about their expectations. The photo above has ties with our family. The little ceramic Santa that used to wind up and play a Christmas tune is old, as it belonged to my husband's family when he was a little boy and it now has come down through the generations. The wooden, painted Santa was designed and painted by our daughter Riel,http://www.rielnason.com/ she was always a very creative child.
