Comfort & Joy
The maple tree is bare Winter is Close at hand I notice Two circular-shaped hideaways Constructed with skill Anchored high among the branches Even though the wind is strong The rain is heavy— The nests do not Shift Even though it’s vacant, quiet The proof remains Stable even now to protect and care for someone Maybe me? Maybe you?
Do you know one person who could use some extra care this week? What is one thing we could offer to spread comfort & joy? Please feel free to share in the comments.
Yesterday I filled the bird feeders and am enjoying the flits and flutters from my kitchen table.
I had taken a number of years “off” from feeding for various reasons. Mostly because my energy was devoted -- to sorting myself? 🤔
To everything there is a season...
Nature is wonderful awesome and amazing. I am helping a new friend get settled into her new “nest”. It’s an overwhelming task to move into a new place. An extra pair of hands is very welcome. Animals work so hard and diligently until their task is complete, they don’t give up like we humans do sometimes. Was there ever a half built nest? They are a good model to emulate.
