Walking to Willowford farm after sunset ...

We arrived at Willowford Farm just after sunset - for the last mile, everything we saw was bathed in a glowing, poignant, light - 

It was as though the world was ending - I felt that I was in a waking dream - 

I looked up to see the sky full of marvels - 

I remembered when I'd seen jewelled birds in Stanley Park - the trees had shone like glass - this  moment took me back to that earlier time - 

Once more, I knew, my eyes were truly open - I treasured every step we took along our path -
