Robin From the Woods

 

A Small Encounter

Robin from the woods - by Aga 

A quiet walk through the woods

Bare branches, soft air

A robin appeared — small, fragile, still

Perched gently among the trees

A simple moment, easily missed

Nature’s reminder to slow down

Sometimes, all it takes is a short walk to notice something beautiful.

Field Notes: April, Passing Through

A quiet ordinary walk afternoon   - a folded note at the edge of the page    As I walk through the park, time softens around me. Birds chirp from unseen branches, their voices weaving lightly through the air.   ———   The sun rests gently on my skin, warm without insisting, while a delicate wind passes by — a quiet whisper brushing leaves along the path. New leaves are unfolding in shades of light green, tender and translucent, catching the light as if still learning how to be leaves. Above me, clouds move slowly, gliding quietly across an open sky.

Early Signs of Spring   Written beginning of March and finished end of month Cold again this morning. The air catches in my throat when I step outside. The ground still feels winter‑hard, holding on longer than expected. Later, the weather changes. Not dramatically — just enough. Light shifts. The sun stays. Warmth settles in places that were grey an hour ago. I walk without thinking much about where I’m going. Garden first. Then the street. Then the park. Colour begins to show up everywhere, quietly, as if it has been waiting.     Hyacinths near the path — lilac and light purple. Their scent reaches me before I notice the flowers themselves. It lingers longer than expected. A small almond tree. Mostly bare. Branches thin and exposed. Tiny pink buds appear only if I stand still long enough. Forsythia further on. Small yellow points against what’s left of winter. Blue muscari close to the ground, bells pressed together. Cherry trees just beginning — pale pink, al...
