February garden

February garden
light on evergreens
covered with snow
I still know the words
from songs long ago

February Creative Notes

The garden is beautiful; with some snow on evergreens, and the fallen branch we left by the old green chair, with a chrysanthemum that bloomed for a time.

I am enjoying my 2023 mini-calendar by Annette Makino, that I bought from her MakinoStudios Etsy shop. “Japanese-inspired art, cards & more by Annette Makino.” The calendar is on the wall near my computer by a collage painting by Wendy Brightbill. agirlandherbrush is Wendy’s Etsy shop.

And I thought I would mention two more journals I have received, to follow my post, winter and grateful.

Time Of Singing goes back a long time. I recently renewed as a Sponsor for Volume 50. Westward Quarterly has also published for a long time.

Just a few of many possible examples to share today . . .
