Welcome cover for the hungry birds Whose song is the orchestral soundtrack to God's own watercolour dawn , , beautifully written,
nice piece of poetry there... you mention the name.... but really...be it winder-mere, coniston, buttermeare or dervent.... the poem celebrates and rings everywhere. for divinity is one and for us mortals the observing eye that we depend on a unity too. charged and fervent lines. and you have given it a really travel by feel.... i for one was sitting right there beside you, ya on the 'coach' from bowness to ambleside... lovely :) liked

You've incredibly painted the dawn sky and the hovering mist over the Lake Loch Conn. Thanks for the note. Promised to myself that from tomorrow, shall again resume my dawn walks.
you make me see and regret... for the beauty of dawn and missing it oftner than not.10/10.
