http://coccinella-ladybug.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 30, 2008. I stand by the river where both of us stood,. And there is but one shadow to darken the flood:. And the path leading to it, where both used to pass,. Has the step but of one, to take dew from the grass, -. One forlorn since that day. The flowers of the margin are many to see,. For none stoops at my bidding to pluck them for me;. The bird in the alder sings loudly and long,. For my low sound of weeping disturbs not his song,. As thy vow did that day! Would I trouble thee. Last ...

Friday, November 11, 2011. Inspired by Delwyn's "Silence". And Wanda's "Deep Into Fall". Yesterday morning, I wandered around my garden. In my 'jammies' capturing nature at the best part of the day. And, as sun broke through the mist,. Revealing the perfect azure sky,. Kookaburra wasn't fazed by my presence. And Charlie, our favourite Cockatoo. Was keeping a beady eye on me,. Following my every move! Labels: Garden Early Morning Peaceful. November 12, 2011 at 11:36 AM. November 12, 2011 at 3:31 PM. Wanda...
