A Stroll around my Neighbourhood

Did you know?

I have a famous neighbour?

Though she's not actually alive now,

least, not on this plane!

We often go round by my neighbour's house,

it's just over the hedge from my back garden.

One of the things my neighbour's house

is famous for is it's windows.

When the house was built late 16th century,

windows and glass were a luxury,

in fact you might say

they were as valuable as gold!

Golden Windows!

Today we had a leisurely stroll

through our neighbour's garden

it was beautiful,

as the golden evening sun

hit the ice water on one of the

seven ponds.

Next Sunday I'll show the entrance to our neighbour's house.

I love the sunlight reflecting on the windows of the neighbour's home, they're like jewels.

Morning has Broken

Yesterday the black dog came to visit me, the same black dog who used to visit Winston Churchill. When my daughter came around, she could see the black dog had turned up too and that I was completely at his mercy. She made her leave with a simple kiss and goodbye, "hope he goes soon", I nodded in agreement. For when he's around he completely demands my attention and there's no shaking him loose! On retiring I sternly told the black dog I didn't understand the reason for his visit and that I thought I had sat with him for long enough and to be gone in the morning! *** I've not seen him so far, this morning thank goodness !!! It is the beginning of a brand new day, I am grateful for each day of my life... I was at a funeral on Friday, to say we'd anticipated a sad day all turned out most beautifully.... my favourite hymn was sung 'Morning has Broken' On this brand new day I'm sitting here tapping the k...

What to Do?

Jamie Ridler asks in Wishcasting Wednesday - How would you like to spend some time? Good question for me at this time of year as I usually embark on some course or other for the winter months ahead, and as usual I'm not sure? I go through familiar questions, what do I really love and would like to spend time pursuing? I've got qualifications in Fine Art and my heart is in photography, graphics, printmaking etc. But I'm torn because I'm also interested in Personal Development and have a yearning to share what I've learned so far with others in some way, especially on-line? So what do I do? How do I spend some time doing what I want to do, don't know, not sure but one thing I do know is that I need to spend more time puzzling it out? Or will it just come to me? Do I spend more time meditating upon these ideas??? For other wishcaster wishes visit Jamie Ridler Studios
