I visited Sydney's Chinese garden recently. As it's in winter, trees lost a lot of leaves. This one is from the end of autumn. Full of leaves and sun coming through.

This year my Oregon Grape cultivar 'Charity' gave me a wonderful surprise. It produced grapes, after several years with none. I had assumed that I would enjoy it for its awesome yellow candelabra flowers alone, which cheered me up each year in the depths of winter. Surprise! This year it produced beautiful but sour grapes in abundance. :)

Yes
That's the question
I'm being a bit Shakespearian this evening
I found the perfect house, it might need some decorating and cleaning up tho, but that's ok
Sometimes I really think that hibernating must be pretty nice
You set your life on hold
You can pause a bit
Think and Dwell
Check if this addiction is ruling your life
But
Perhaps thinking isn't always the answer
Sometimes it gets all messed up if you think too much
Sometimes you are supposed to just float along
But
It surely isn't always easy
All these thoughts
You are worried
You are left out
You are too far away
You can't do so much about anything
But you care
I guess
You just need the time to go
Or
Letting him go
Either the addiction goes away or not
God knows
I don't
Sadness can not blow away the spring....... I will never be cheerful again as long as Russia wages this heinous war against the people of Ukraine.
The European rabbit is a genus of the hares and rabbits family. It is the only species in the genus Oryctolagus. The lagomorphs still have 2 small teeth behind their upper incisors, the pin teeth, the lower teeth wear against this. Rodents do not have these extra teeth. So contrary to popular belief…..a rabbit is not a rodent !!
Dunrobin Castle is the most northerly of Scotland's great houses and the largest in the Northern Highlands with 189 rooms. Dunrobin Castle is also one of Britain's oldest continuously inhabited houses dating back to the early 1300s, home to the Earls and later, the Dukes of Sutherland. The Castle, which resembles a French château with its towering conical spires, has seen the architectural influences of Sir Charles Barry, who designed London’s Houses of Parliament.

Longing Melody - Where to belong
Sometimes all we need is the sound of the waves, the song of birds, the scent of the sea salt mixing with spring bloom and a wind to stoke out cheeks lovingly. Just (be)longing.
