A tiny episode of just over 2 mins with a garden nuthatch who sang a few words to me :) - I write automatically as she chatters...

So resonant and the perfect messge x

................................

‘Sliding scale musical joy is here every day

and I run, creep, sleek up and down it

as you do.

Si Si Siiiiii! Smooth…and bubbling merry under, my call.

This heart glows radiant soft, timeless –

beneath my orange-pink underfeathers and

you have my blue-grey artist back,

a colour-wheel, complementary creeper

plus tree – perfect!

Though I disappear into deeper woods, it’s true,

I return when you do,

with clear focus, black stripe precision sharp

direct through the eye

and point to our purpose, our poise,

our protection.

Swift, sure and true –

I am an inner fire of blessing.

Si Si Si!

As are you.’


Thank you, Nuthatch x

& thank you for listening.
