The Spring Tree Goddess
Words Inspired By The Painting By Angie Livingstone
Introduction
This wonderful picture by Angie made me think of old Earth and Nature magic and mysticism which I shall interpret via a villanelle.
This is my thirty-sixth piece inspired by Angie's work, and I am grateful that she has allowed to do this. When we reach the fiftieth one it will then be time to produce our book.
This is her work on Etsy
The music is "Moonlight Dryads" by Derek Fiechter

Do You have a Support Network?
Life is harder when youβre on your own. Human beings are social creatures, and we usually feel better when we have support from a strong social network around us. For most people, itβs our families that hold us together like glue.

Well-wrought! Though I must say, I'm a bit spoiled on rabbits as gentle creatures, as I had one of my own, an albino red-eyed Netherland Dwarf who was mean and lean! Also, having recently watched "Watership Down" probably doesn't help...
When you two are done, this book will be a masterpiece
This is lovely, Mike! Angieβs art is fabulous!
This poem is such a beautiful, serene celebration of nature's cycles and the Spring Tree Goddess!
This was soooo beautiful Mike! So magical. Loved it!
We are delightfully waiting for the Spring Tree Goddess to bless us with the warmth of spring and the plants waking up and bring to life. Love this poem.
Beautifully rendered. Only 14 to go!
Why did I get emotional reading this?! Thereβs so much more to a poem when you pair it with an artwork as sweet as the one you chose. This was a delight!
