Tanka: Holding Light

a black whippet walking on a sandbar beside a tidal lagoon
a blue and white whippet walking through a tidal lagoon

holding light
the way it happens
when a heart opens
in this new, quiet landscape
where angels can be heard

We are staying positive for the dogs and they are a great help in filling us with hope for the future.

We hope you all stay well and healthy and wish you a peaceful Thursday and a beautiful rest of the week,

with love from Eivor, Pearl and Xenia xxx

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Vicky 💗 The sandbar is under water at high tide and the ripples are caused by the waves. Hope you are all staying healthy too and please give Tippy a big pat from us all 🤗💖🐕 xxx
