Company

Galloping
white horses
riding the waves,
keeping our little yacht
company.

In Their Element

Riding
the wind,
silently soaring, swooping
effortlessly, in their element.
Seagulls.

It’s Here!

Simply Elfje

‘Simply Elfje’ final cover.

Good News! My ‘Simply Elfje’ book of the blog is now available to purchase from Amazon. I have tweaked the colour of the cover a little and here is the revised version.

Snowdrops.

One, Two, Three

One,
two, three…

music in her head.
Dancing.

Snow
