Bless it! All the colour has been drained out of me lately, Gilly. It’s almost take to the armchair with a tartan blanket time of year 🙂 Lovely tree and lovely hopeful words. Happy Thursday!
What a cheerful tree clinging on to it s leaves (a Ginkgo?) when all around they are bare. Oh, yes, spring. Only winter to get through… I think I shall copy Jo and find myself a tartan blanket 🙂
A beautiful tanka. I love the conversational tone, and the repetition works beautifully. A long time to wait for renewal, as I’m realising under fog, with subzero looming. 35° at (other) home the other day: J returns next week having stored this up for here, I hope.
Lovely photo and sentiment,Gilly

I understand why you’d feel wishy-washy but I can’t imagine you sitting still for long. Happy Thursday to you sweetheart ❤
Touching, Gilly. The tree comforting YOU about its absence for months to come. A handsome specimen. 🙂 ❤

Such is life 🙂
It’s so beautiful and hopeful and in a few eloquent words. Thank you, Gilly!
