  • Bare Feet

    It’s easy to get trained
    You see
    By the horrid Winter freeze
    To bundle up
    And sneak outside
    And hide from the elements

    Then one sunny day in March
    You wake up and hear the sound of

  • Musings About Life and the Land

    I am a farm girl; I “get” the lambing season at Imbolg as I have spent many sleepless nights in the barn, praying to Brighid as I midwife livestock. I don’t need to be reminded of where my food comes from, I have grown it!
