This is a beautiful post! Haiku is the form I go to when I am most inspired, or amused. Birds! The Birds! Your entire post brings to mind one of my favorite books by Anne Lamott, “Bird by Bird”. Have faced similar pet and family health challenges over this past year. The beauty through all of that has been partially relocating to the East Coast, and discovering it again like a tourist (I’ve been away so long) in between and alongside caring for my mom (we went to a lovely Solstice celebration last night that was pretty far out of her comfort zone, and made personal essential oil fragrances together), and had a “sleepover” at my new apartment. Snapping turtles! There is one that lives on the banks of the river behind my apartment. And I’ve been inspired to enroll in a watercolor portrait class online given by one of my favorite Cincinnati drawing teachers. Fitting creativity in as many open bits of time as possible. It is essential and life giving, and your post captures this beautifully!❤️❤️❤️Enormous hugs friend!
