Helen Dunmore, Aquilegia and Reflection

16 Jan

I have finished Helen Dunmore’s last novel, Birdcage Walk, today and it was as gripping as suggested, a thriller that can’t be put down, especially the last third. I love her poetry too.What a loss to the literary world.

The buds of the creamy white Aquilegia in the bunch that I was given last week have now opened and are very lovely.

From my seat across the kitchen, I noticed the lovely reflection of the satsumas in the work top.

It pleases me that sometimes there is a serendipitous linking between my photos  –  today the warmth of the golden colours.

    A book finished; the words live on after the writer. Bloom to reflective orange and the serendipitous that delights you. Your post today reminds me of a song record by Buffy Sainte-Marie and written by Leonard Cohen, ‘God Is Alive Magic is Afoot’.
