my december moon

~ cold and frosted moon through the bare apple trees~
Last evening, I put on my coat to put the hens to bed
and then followed the moon down through the trees.
We have had such clouded days and tonight the clouds opened up for just a moment and
let the early December moon shine through.
It's such a beautiful peaceful moon, shining through the old apple tree's bare branches.
The grass beneath, crisp and crunching under my boots.
Looking up at it, in the quiet night, I can't help but feel so thankful for our warm little farmhouse
and the people I love inside snug by the fire and thinking how very blessed
we are with good and simple pleasures.
I pray that all of you have such a night.
sending love,
C

When you gaze up at that moon do you ever think how vast the Heavens are...
May you enjoy your evening under the December moon, kitties on your lap, warm by the fire, sewing your darling dollies...

We had a beautiful moon last night as well. :-) So bright that when I woke up at 3:30ish I thought it was dawn.

Ohh it was a lovely moon, wasn't it. It was clear as a bell here in the midwest. So big and bright, it seemed as if I could reach out and touch it.

Our Goddess moon with all of her beautiful aspects, always fills me with awe, and wonderment and wakes the magic everytime.
