February Light

There is something about the light in February that slides into my heart and unlocks an inner flow. I wonder if this is how my Ash feels, her little catkins are forming, soft chartreuse and deep rose. As they fill out against the sky I marvel at the communication between trees and earth and sky. It has been snowing and cold. Frost still visits every night and still my Ash knows just when the right moment is to set her buds.


OH, so beautiful! What a magical moment you captured here. We still have patches of old snow here, the in-between time . . . but I saw swallows wheeling in the sky today so maybe they know something we humans do not and Spring is on her way! The time of small magics is coming . . .

Swallows wheeling in the sky! one of my favorite images. Thank you Diane. The time of small magic is always i think… as one of your posts and Valkeapaa would have us look at the small and rich patterns of winter tracks in the snow, more magic than one can even absorb.
