Monte Pellegrino has always been considered a sacred mountain by the people of Palermo.
On this mountain lived the last years of his life a young noblewoman, a certain Rosalia, who had decided to live as a hermit.
He died on 4 September 1160 or 1165.
On July 15, 1624, while the plague was scourging Palermo, Rosalia's bones were found in a cave in the mountain. The relics were carried in procession and the plague was defeated. Rosalia became the patron saint of the city, the “Santuzza”, and the Sanctuary was built around the cave.

Morì il 4 settembre del 1160 o 1165.
Il 15 Luglio 1624, mentre la peste flagellava Palermo, le ossa di Rosalia furono ritrovate in una grotta della montagna. Le reliquie furono portate in processione e la peste venne sconfitta. Rosalia divenne la santa patrona della città, la “Santuzza”, e attorno alla grotta venne eretto il Santuario.

As I age in the world it will rise and spread,
and be for this place horizon
and orison, the voice of its winds.
I have made myself a dream to dream
of its rising, that has gentled my nights.
Let me desire and wish well the life
these trees may live when I
no longer rise in the mornings
to be pleased with the green of them
shining, and their shadows on the ground,
and the sound of the wind in them.

I kept passing by
Every day for years
What could you offer me
I wondered
Only tears
You’re just for weddings
Funerals and fears
But a day comes
When all that disappears
Nothing matters
When all thoughts stop
And you are on the edge of a drop
A precipice of denial
Lean one way
I’ll be fine
Lean the other
No I’m not
I wanted my thoughts
In some sort of order
Help me please
Before it’s all over
I went inside and had a look
I got more than what I bargained for
Unconditional love and much more
A small quiet ask
Was all it took
Conversations about many things
And now I know
You were always listening to me
You knew me
You saw me
Right from the beginning
The beautiful gateway to Glynde Church in Sussex, UK, has not changed for many years, except that the gates need to be refitted to the porch. Money is always needed for restoration. Images from the past in black & white and sepia still show this entrance, so I thought I would take my own in homage.
To see more of my images and poems have a look at my website:

During a recent snowfall this deer took sanctuary beneath an evergreen tree in my garden. I felt very cozy in my home watching the silent snow fall, and it was lovely to see this fellow creature in a place of safety.

A little while ago my dear friend Syd Specter gave me a sneak peek at a new, as yet unreleased pack of skies. It's called 'Warm Sun', I've been playing with them all week and I just have to say I am so, so impressed with the level of detail in them. The clouds are so beautifully rendered, they offer layers of depth I'm not sure I could have achieved previously without blending numerous skies together. As an artist she really does just keep getting better and better. I am a very lucky bork to have such a talented friend.
