Is It Spring?
I'm hearing this question all over the place as people wish the moments away looking for something better. I look for signs of new life emerging - the snowdrops and winter aconite shine their carpets of hope amongst the decaying humus of the woodland floor, the owls and foxes make eerie night noise as they mark territory and call for mates, buds on trees seem to swell a little more and my flowering redcurrant is uncurling leaves...
The wheel is turning, but the Carlin/Cailleach has not loosed her hold yet, today she is still washing her plaid in the Coirebreachan and laying it's white sheath over the land...
Buddha sits in the garden, laughing as Jack Frost leaves his calling card, reminding us that each moment is what it is...
