As winter approached, the meadow begged the goddess Flora for one more flower. She dipped her paintbrush in the violet tint of autumn’s twilight and cast its colour across the grass. There sprang to life that last joy of the dying year, the purple meadow-crocus. #FolkloreThursday
Four images arranged in a collage. Top left: a meadow bordered by trees beneath a vivid pink, orange and violet twilight sky. Bottom left: a mass of pale purple crocuses in flower. Bottom centre: a close-up of a single purple crocus bud against a soft green background. Right: a 16th-century botanical illustration of the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus) by Gherardo Cibo, showing purple flowers, slender green leaves and an enlarged corm with spreading roots. Two women gather flowers in the mountainous landscape behind.

“One leaf left on a branch and not a sound of sadness or despair. One leaf left on a branch and no unhappiness. One leaf left all by itself in the air and it does not speak of loneliness or death. One leaf and it spends itself in swaying mildly in the breeze.” – David Ignatow (1914–1997) #autumn
A single orange-red autumn leaf hangs from a slender, almost bare cherry tree branch. Sunlight illuminates its finely serrated edges and delicate veins. The branch stretches diagonally across the photograph against a softly blurred background of golden yellow, amber and green autumn foliage.

Make sure to refuse treatment from any "foreign" doctors and nurses and you probably won't need to worry about it for long

A Row of Trees,' (1915) depicts a road near Oranjewoud, a small village in Friesland in the Netherlands near to where Jan Mankes lived for most of his life. His favourite subjects were birds, small animals and from 1911, the beauty of the spacious Fries landscape.

My advice to library Friends Groups and to all library users/supporters is to always support Library Workers, don’t get involved in any plans to widen volunteer involvement. With more cuts happening/coming Councils are looking to cut & ‘restructure’ don’t become complicit.
