Oh my darling, cling to me
For we're creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind
- Dimitri Tiomkin
A blustery Sunday afternoon as the wind tempers the heat of the summer sun. Coffee, jazz on the radio and a garden.

The whistles and warbles of hidden birds in rhe tree, the moon in the sunset sky
The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other’s welcome
- Derek Walcott

Thank you for coming home
Sorry that the chairs are all worn
I left them here, I could have sworn
These are my salad days
Slowly being eaten away

Seascape at sunrise
5.45am beach stroll, with coffee. No-one but one friendly tannie, who goodmornings and turns back to get her camera phone before her power walk.
Saturday morning on the southern coast of the Western Cape.

A small film of spring flowers from my garden because we recover from stress 60% more quickly when we look at plants & if we find them beautiful our brains release dopamine, lifting mood. Pause for a few moments to help your synaptic soup 🌿🧠:

For many years I have been posting little observations online. What you may not know is that for many years, artists have been illustrating them - for no reason other than they wanted to respond. Below is a thread of some of these beautiful drawings because they should be seen 🧵
