We are in the bleak midwinter, yet..

I imagine tracing your footsteps in "our" garden..

and I am reminded of this poem, by Arthur Rimbaud:

On the blue summer evenings, I shall go down the paths
Getting pricked by the corn, and crushing the grass
In a dream, I shall feel its coolness on my feet
And I shall let the wind bathe my bare head

I shall not speak, I shall think of nothing:
But endless love will mount in my soul
And I shall travel far, very far like a gypsy
Through the countryside, and I shall be as happy as if I am with you.
