turning into the wood from the old
carriage route where trees breathe through
knots and leaves teaming with bird song
our inner child begins to smile
~ by a stone hopscotch spiral ~
with footprints of fairy folk,
squirrel, pine marten, hare,
badger and sika deer whose presence
we are always feeling

Wishing you all wonderful Thursday,
with love from Eivor, Pearl and Xenia xxx
