Seeing beauty everywhere

 



On a rather gloomy day I thought I would spruce up the font courtyard by sweeping away all the wisteria leaves that had recently fallen. As I swept, I noticed that the central stem of the flowers and leaves were quite similar to pine needles so I retrieved them from the swept up muddle of leaves to see if I could make a small basket or bowl with them. 

Laying them out in bundles reminded me of calligraphic strokes - isn’t nature wonderful!


 Who knew such beauty could be found in a pile of leaves ready for the compost!
