It is approaching May as I sit all cozy and dry in my little Gnomacile while outside it is rainy and dark.
Each day brings warmer breezes and soon the gardens will be full of life. The bulbs have pushed through to the surface and the front gardens are full of colours.
I have been raking winter debris off the garden beds and soon fresh green leaves will be all about. The leaves are dancing all over the place with the wind which makes raking a futile activity sometimes. As I pulled my cart back and forth to the compost pile I got a chance to chat with Maizy. She quite enjoyed riding on my cart, nestled in the pillow of leaves and branches.
And so I raise a glass of something ‘medicinal’ while waiting for the rain to clear. Spring is coming soon but for now, there is no place like gnome.
