It's the Spring Equinox - the first astronomical day of spring! ☀️ Longer days. Lighter evenings. Sunshine warm on your skin, birds singing, blossom in the branches.

Golden sunlight bursts through a tangle of budding trees, casting long beams of light across a mossy woodland floor. New green shoots push up through leaf litter and patches of moss, catching the glow of the morning sun. A soft haze fills the air, with a hint of warmth and life returning to the woods.

This morning’s sunshine has reminded me of the word ‘philocaly’: a love of beauty, even in the smallest things.

A collage poem for #Februllage (a yearly arts project with prompts to make a collage a day in February). The prompt for today is ‘trees’.

Letters cut from a magazine and pasted on top of an advertisement for a car. The letters read “breathe in this beautiful advert for a car to drive on roads where there used to be trees”.

If you want to read a new book coming out but don't want to buy it, a great thing you can do is ask your local library to order it. The more requests they get, the more likely they are to acquire it and then lots of people will get to read it who othewise wouldn't.

A very Plathesque trip to Hebden this weekend with a diversion over frozen moors. Staying in the Plath room was a cool surprise too. 📚
