winding their way
through autumn’s forest
old roots
exposed and yet untorn
from earth’s stamp and pathways

Wishing you all a happy Thursday and a peaceful rest of the week,
with love from Eivor, Pearl and Xenia xxx

Such a short and sweet tanka, Xenia. Wonderful description of the woods you were wandering around in. That does look like a winding path you stumbled upon. Looks like vibrant fall-coloured leaves in the distance. Hope you are doing well over there with Eivor and Pearl 🙂

Thank you so much for your kind words dear Mabel 🧡 This path weaves between the ancient pine and further along the leaves on the birch trees have changed into amber and gold. We’re making the most of the daylight hours to enjoy the autumn colours. Hope you are keeping safe and well too! 🤗🧡 xxx
