alicia and i spotted this

by june 2011 it looked like this

and we thought it’s life story was over

12 months later

feb 2012

in the same spot

alicia and i spotted these

although the life story of one might have been over

the life story of the species in this site continues

we’re at a metaphorical crossroads

sat here

in anyone’s garden

amidst a multitude of organisms

converting light to sugars

and detritus to humus

if we sit

for another 12 months

which we might

would there be reason to post our views?

her view

my view

much

as far as our eyes can tell

is like it was last year

and

excluding disasters or significant events

anyone’s garden is likely to continue as it did last year

salix will shoot

budleas bloom

orchids blossom

butterflies, birds, bees, and a multitude of other critters will come and go

just an hypothesis

but do we want to test it?

perhaps there are other

more interesting

more intriguing

more challenging

hypothesis’ to be had

like

nature aesthetic in the built environment is not a matter of taste

for now

we need our anyone’s garden

for inspiration

as well as a meeting place

to sit

and

enjoy life go by

but that’s our business

for now …
