Gabi

Very early this morning I took up my camera to photo a bleeding horizon sky where a rainbow arced and dipped into the deep redness.

Later this morning the postman dropped a letter and I looked in confusion at the German words and though I couldn't understand any of them I gradually surmised that my very good friend Gabi had died on the 2nd Sept. The last time we had spoken she was vey much looking forward to moving to Hamburg from her country house with her husband Theo. I will miss speaking with her, she has been a big support to me.

Today there's been a wind which seems to be growing a bit wilder now.
