The Flame Haired Solstice Dreamer

Cold winter brings the Everfrost and jewels every tree
In a forest new as birth and old as old can be
A flame~haired dreamer wanders there and shelters from the wind
And spins her dreams around the trees to break the ties that bind
She takes her thread and spins anew and how the Greenwood smiles
As she spins a spell for freedom and for her spirit Wylde

The dreamer finds an ancient oak and shelters in his lee
In a forest new as birth and old as old can be
Tis summer now and birdsong weaves its magick through her spells
And humming bees drum drowsily in the foxglove's bells
The dreamer sits beneath the oak with yarn upon her knee
And spins and knits and weaves her dreams and sets her spirit free

"When birds fall from the sky and the animals are dying, a new tribe of people...shall come unto the earth from many colors, classes, creeds, who by their actions and deeds shall make the earth green again. they will be known as the warriors of the Rainbow"

some of you will be aware of 'the fast show' and have a little laugh at my post title, if you don't please follow the link and have a smile.

well now, beside the sudden rise in temperature again little really has been happening here over the last few weeks.

I have been getting used to my little car-who by the way is named Sybill. In honour of my love for Harry Potter for i always see my alter-ego as being Sybill Trelawney but also because of my love for classical studies


i love my little car and so happy to have such a little eco one, her emissions and engine size are such that my yearly road tax is £30 and insurance was only £200, which is amazing. when i hear what young, new drivers are paying to drive the same car i am glad i have age and experience on my side!


I have also completed my degree!

after all this time its finished and while i know i have passed i am waiting to get my final grade. because of the virus the final examinable essay was cancelled unless we wanted to defer for an unknown period of time. for some people who were relying on this final grade to up their marks enough to get a good final grade i imagine it was a huge disappointment and having to defer would put them back a year maybe. 
I always put my very best into every essay and this one i gave an extra 10% and was awarded an A!
 I was really happy with this especially when my tutor said she rarely gives that kind of grade and with her full support i have now registered to start my MA in classical studies in October...with her as my tutor.
i am so excited by this
