a long walk or cycle
a picnic in the park
contemplation by the water
listening to the birds
watching the clouds skim by
joyful earthing in my garden
nature unravels the knots
and soothes my soul

I like the angle Kate, but I could hear you talking but I couldn’t make out what you were saying. We’re you reciting your poetry perhaps?
I think reciting a poem might be nice

Beautiful! I tried to watch it on my phone but it doesn’t play – only on the computer… The ocean is beautiful and although I could hear the music there was no other sound – no waves and not your voice.

thanks Val really appreciate your persistence and your subscription! No too many were whining that the wind and waves were so loud you can barely hear my voice. So I put musac over my audio, the seagull video still has the original sound track 🙂
My camera work can be improved but really need to learn how to work the audio, hadn’t realised I had such picky mates 🙂

Kate, your verses take me to a special place. Nature remains one of my best places to invigorate my inner fabric. Your video adds to the impact of the verses. I’ve only been with a couple of visits to the ocean.
