The garden. A place to rest, and to enjoy close to home the colours and fragrances that nature has to offer.
This quiet space at the back of our house gets a lot of sunshine on sunny mornings, and a lot of rain at any time of the day. It was a place inhabited by lavender, tomatoes, strawberries, a Hydrangea (or: hortensia), a patch of grass, an abundance of weeds, various plants that I don’t know the names of, and sometimes two cats.
It’s a nice place to just be in and breathe for a while.
