“Your pain is
the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.” Kahil Gibran
One of my favourite quotes which I share with you this Good
Friday. It is only when your heart truly
breaks that you understand just how great is your capacity to love.
Last Easter I gave you a Butterfly Poem which somehow
encapsulated my feelings at the time – and here, for those of us still with a lingering sadness as Good Friday evokes old memories, we can listen in our inmost inmost
silence for George’s voice saying:
“Don’t weep at my grave,
for I am not there,
I’ve a date with a
butterfly to dance in the air.
I’ll be singing in the
sunshine, wild and free
playing tag with the wind
while I am waiting for thee.”
for I am not there,
I’ve a date with a
butterfly to dance in the air.
I’ll be singing in the
sunshine, wild and free
playing tag with the wind
while I am waiting for thee.”
A very Happy Easter to you
All – and George, ‘Our joys are greater, Our love is deeper, Our lives are fuller
because we shared your moment’ Thank you.
News from the Wood.
Only a couple of pictures for you this time and only the briefest of news - the snowdrops were beautiful this year and frogs have been spawning on our pond. The barn owl has been frequenting the nesting box this spring so hopefully this year she may rear some youngsters and last week there was a yellow brimstone butterfly enjoying the sunshine in the wood.
