for the grey days,
there will be clouds,
we will stumble along bumpy little paths
the old dogs will be on their guard
and a few passersby will greet us.

Photo: Marahau (windy gardens) at low tide, the marsh where seabirds gather
They stood here and there
Like little soldiers
The twigs !
Like little herons
Scrawny in the world
Of marsh and dead wood
In the microcosm
Of damp sand living
In a vibrant silence

At the threshold of the cold season, grey and often a little sad, I try to look at what surrounds me in a different way and I am surprised by what I see.
The air was damp
But it was not raining.
The cool wind cleared my thoughts
in the undergrowth behind the cathedral.
Frozen fingers.
Good heavens ! Iwould never stop learning.
And even though it was damp and cold
the moment was beautiful.
Au seuil de la saison froide, grise et souvent un peu triste, j’essaie de regarder ce qui m’entoure d’une manière différente et je suis surprise par ce que j’aperçois.
L’air était humide.
mais il ne pleuvait pas
Le vent frais clarifiait mes pensées.
Dans le sous-bois derrière la cathédrale.
les doigts gelés
on n’en finirait jamais d’apprendre
et même s’il faisait humide et froid
Le moment était beau.
