This is the first film I have tried to post, taken through the dinning room window, Gold Finches feeding on Sunflower Hearts.
I hope it works!
The new years come, the old years go,
We know we dream, we dream we know.
We rise up laughing with the light,
We lie down weeping with the night.
We hug the world until it stings,
We curse it then and sigh for wings.
We live, we love, we woo, we wed,
We wreathe our brides, we sheet our dead.
We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear,
And that’s the burden of the year.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox, “The Year” (1910)
I hope all your dreams and plans come true for 2017.
