Adornment

Many months ago, long before the world changed, my friend Archangel Janet sent me from Glastonbury a postcard in the form of a beautiful watercolour-and-pen painting, a blue-green landscape with wintry trees. I have only now got a frame for it and put it on the wall. It sits in the smallest bedroom next to a framed Christmas card I had from her a few years ago, a block-printed angel elaborated with gold leaf. I've been accustomed to call this The Children's Room, but it's been so very, very rare that any children have ever used it that I wonder whether it should be named after her instead! How lucky I am to have friends who can produce such lovely things.
