A blossom canopy – yes – when I was a child I used to lie under that canopy at my grandparents’. Their garden had plum trees, apple trees, cherry trees and pear trees. A dream for me to lie in the high grass, looking up in the sky of flowers. How I miss all this…the house was sold when they died and I can barely walk by there, looking at how that wonderful garden has fallen apart. Nobody cares for the trees and the house has been rebuilt as a big, ugly modern thing. I avoid going there. My heart aches and that empty black hole I fell into when my grandmother died opens up again. Aching. Hurting.
That’s so hard when that happens Ann-Christine. I have similar feelings when I pass by my grandmother’s place that is no more. Wouldn’t it be lovely if people could adapt to a property rather than impose themselves upon it?
That would be a dream. But, very seldom people do…they seem to want to change it immediately. Never listening to what the house and grounds have to tell them …never listening to the whispers in the rooms.

Thank you, Sylvia!
Love the blossom. Reminds me of what it is like to walk under the boughs of blossom in springtime. A blossom canopy. 🙂

Lovely. The flowers and birds against the cobalt sky are amazing…https://grieflessons.wordpress.com/2015/04/01/cees-fun-foto-challenge-colorful-monotones/
