Hail!

Winter has made its presence felt for the first time...

Heaven casts its pearls

Tiny, white and freezing cold

Impermanent spheres

Love in a time of sorrow...

It is a sad time in our forest home... our darling pup Kira has a heart condition, which means she'll not be with us for much longer.  But as I look into her languid eyes, filled with trust and gentleness, I know...

Love can never fade

It grows strong as time passes

Like an ancient tree
