clarity (the gift of a small bird)

a small bird, a sweet anam cara, has arrived from across oceans, bringing a song of clarity... words of light... and a warm embrace from my dear friend, the alchemist mel-pin...

each day since the arrival of this soul bird, i climb the stairs to the third floor sanctuary in my home... to ask the secret questions,* to listen for the one precious word that i have forgotten*...

slowly, my heart begins to resonate with this sweet bearer of clarity...

may all travelers find joy!!
love and best wishes,
jeanne

*the soul bird brings these words from melina, words that rest in my heart...

scanned, assembled and altered image, march 5, 2007
(including a flying letter from the alchemist melina, a cloth that hangs in my third floor sanctuary, and a golden tray for serving tea)

such gifts we recieve from nature. the birds, the dogs, the cows.

your words, jeanne, are always such sweet gifts.

today, i saw lime green green parrots flying about in a beautiful grove
of trees, at the calico museum of textiles.

nice serendipity.

The image is beautiful. It looks like a golden book, a magical book that might hold the answers to each day's questions.
