'Write! Write!' The insistent voice whispered .. so I write. I'm a 'wordsmith' rather than a poet. Australia is my home. Fryslân (Netherlands) holds a big part of my heart. All words and photos are mine, unless otherwise stated. No AI used. 🇦🇺🌷

How does one introduce oneself in a forum such as this #bluesky with only 300 characters, which includes the spaces? Perhaps it's in the spaces where one's true identity lies. The untold stories. The unheard sighs.

I like to write and ponder upon things. The rest is in all those spaces. 🌷

Wow! Fantastic photo. Great detail, and so sharp.

Just back from choir rehearsal. Always exhausting. Bed for me. You and Sam have the best day. Nite. 🌙😴

I'm in love with this photo. So clever how you managed to get the rainbow to follow the outline of the tree. Some magic happening there. 😉😊 Ireland sounds a little dangerous with ankle kicking Leprechauns. I hope there are warnings posted everywhere. Have a good day Alan. Bed for me. 🙋‍♀️🫶🤍🕊️

Wow. That sounds wonderful. I reckon while it is tiring, you find it rewarding. I've just returned from choir rehearsal. Good fun. Lot of work. Bed now. 🫶🤍

😂 What a manic image. That's certainly not how I work.

We all write for different reasons. I've written things all throughout my life, my writing has taken a different direction in the last 8 months. I'm liking what I'm doing at present. 🕊️

🙏 Thanks Gina. I'm always pondering upon something, it's just my way. Hope your Sunday went well and you are having a lovely evening. My Monday is well underway, and I better get on with some jobs. I have Choir rehearsals tonight, and I am the 'Choir Mum', so things to do before tonight. 🙋‍♀️🫶🤍

Understand that. Sometimes you need to trust yourself and allow your thoughts and words freedom. Once I let mine free, I never know what they will do, or how they will be received. Most of the time I'm pleasantly surprised. Do it slowly. 🫶🤗🕊️

Yes, I certainly learnt my lesson about backing up.

Oberon is named after the King of the Fairies in A Midsummer Night's Dream. It was named in 1863. It has a village next door named Titania, named after the Queen of the Fairies. 🧚🧚 It is a beautiful area. Just over the Blue Mountains.
