The days are getting longer. YES! We actually saw the sun here today.
ReplyDeleteamen to longer days and light!!
ReplyDeleteEarthmother you bring a smile to my face... when I came to Ohio last February for an opening at Ursuline the Plain Dealer ran a front page mention that if the sun didn't come out that day it would be 91 days since it had last shown!!
ReplyDeleteI do not miss the lake effect cloud cover :-)
But I do miss all my pals!! Yes...Amen to more light!!!!
Candlemas/Brigid's Day is a special holy day to me, as I have an afinity with the goddess Brigid. For me it is a turning point, a time to focus on new beginnings. This painting is beautiful; thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteHi Sharmon...Yes a time for new beginnings indeed...how does Thoreau say it...'imagine a certain kind of summer even in the midst of winter'....it is sooooooooooooooo cold now so dreaming of summer and the creative burgeoning to come is a wonderful practice for this time of year. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful and soul-filled.
