“On the lip of an abyss roaring with dark wind stood a tiny bush that bore an intensely red flower. The bush grew right on the very edge of nothingness, and yet somehow its roots were holding. It had a grip that no wind could disturb; it thrived there, all on its own, this modest little plant, and while the abyss yawned beside it, it went on bravely, doggedly flowering.”
Helen Garner “Notes from a Brief Friendship” 2011 p46 “Everywhere I Look” 2016
Full Moon
It's Crow Time 
this Prayer is breathing
the brave red flower is rooted in the seed nestled in the branch that has let go to be a raft riding the winds of change
A beautiful weaving together of Hope.
a handle on reality, the sun comes up, the moon waxes and wane, the tides come and go, the seasons turn, gardening & stitching are a way to mend the tears
Another special amulet, Mo ….
(I cherish mine 😉 !)

The light of the full moon and your beautiful work and Helen Garner’s words are so healing to see in these dark times.
