  1. Good day dear Catherine. I’ll need a bit more time to digest this poem fully! Thank you for another wonderful picture this morning – is that a cute little birdhouse I see on the left, by the start of the fence? I have a soft spot for birdhouses; we even hang one above my brother’s home, nestled in a perpetually green tree high above where no one can reach it’s bright – I’m based in Southern California, but my brother resides in the snowy Midwest of the United States. Quite the contrast in weather, right?

  2. Very nice. I paused for a couple of minutes with few thought interruptions looking at the photo after reading the poem. I’m still oddly at peace.

    Thanks.

Originally hailing from Ottawa, Canada, I developed a deep fascination for wildlife while chasing after wild animals in the swamps. Although I initially aspired to become a veterinarian, my path took an unexpected turn when I relocated to Italy. In Italy, I pursued my passion for nature by earning a BS in Environmental Sciences and Territorial Management. This educational experience further ignited my love of writing about the natural world and its diverse wildlife. I’m an active member of several professional organizations, including SCBWI, 12x12PB Challenge, ICWA, and the Children’s Book Academy. Constantly seeking growth and connection within the industry, I engage with fellow writers and storytellers. Despite my affinity for all creatures, I humorously admit that my nine cats can be the most challenging animals to handle. When I’m not wrangling my feline friends, I spend my time writing, doodling, playing with clay, gardening, and exploring the enchanting Italian countryside with my husband. I also love preparing homemade pasta, showcasing my culinary skills.

    Beautiful! We only had one snowfall in Northern Italy, I miss the snow.
