one morning I noticed this flattened tiny toad on our path leading up towards the house suggesting it was one of us who had trampled him the night before whilst walking in the dark not noticing the small critters crossing from flower-bed to the shelter under the bushes
some shelter, huh, now he is gone forever
I cried then and I cried today as I stitched all the small objects onto the cloth stitched underneath and over his tiny armpits and maybe I also cried a little for myself and everyone else after a week of upset and turmoil who knows
Hallelujah brought my tears back to the surface again. I am so sad for us benighted and frightened humans, and all the other life forms we step on in our darkness.
i come here via ipad at dawn while drinking my coffee. Today, your beautiful masthead appeared and then the photo of Django at the tree trunk. I felt this big smile creep across my face and my soul. Really!!!
So over the years you have inspired me to watch for critter remains on my walks in the fields and I never find anything!
Oh blimey I know what you mean about things. What a truly hideous year this is. I wil be happy to see it go. Though I fear that the world may get darker.........but Hope, as I must, that I'll be wrong. Peace to you Saskia; and to all X
