“the comfort of reclusion, the poetry of hibernation”
― Swann’s Way
This is a bit of a holiday card to all my readers. I am going on a “blogcation, a bit of a hibernation you might say to immerge after the first of the year refreshed with new ideas and new direction. In this 12th month, the time of pause, I wish all of you a wonderful holiday season and a rejuvenating New Year!
Alanna
Beyond the sparkling lights
Apples hang in winter’s chill
Red ornaments on leafless branches
That brighten the sleeping orchard
A flutter of chickadees gather about the feeder
Giving me pause to cherish
The gifts of December
By Alanna Pass 
Enjoy your holidays Alanna!

Have a great respite. I know what you mean about taking a break from time to time. I tend to do that about twice a year. And then you come back so full of ideas. Have a lovely holiday and a peaceful blogation (love that word!).
