On this beautiful, calm and wind still morning the garden has been transformed into what reminds me of fairy land, the reflexion of light in the dew drops makes the spider webs shimmer and reminds me of fairy lights, or even the Christmas tree and brings me back to early childhood days, to innocence and happiness. I wander around the garden taking in this beauty and allowing these feelings to be. Autumn leaves have been brushed up yesterday, but it is the spider webs that really herald the beginning of autumn here in West Cork. There is not a sound to be heard, all the neighbours are still asleep, then a robin takes the floor and cheerfully sings its heart out.
Wind still and glorious, another day has begun.
My heart fills with gratitude.




I wrote these words some years ago but because we have recently been living with so many raindrops, not dewdrops, and we are all quite saturated with the damp and the darkness ~ I decided to give life to this post again as the beauty of watery drops really is something incredible and we might as well enjoy them.
Beautiful pictures. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful words, Agnes. I fear for my tomatoes with all this dampness but actually I love the cold and rain. Rain in summer and crisp sunny days in winter 😊

Thank you Helen. Yes I can see your point. As it happens we did have a beautiful summer’s day today and then the rain is soon forgotten 😊

It is! We had a rain-free day yesterday and this looks set to continue for at least a week. Enjoy your sunshine while it lasts, Agnes.
