5 AM, a blue dawn. I open the green shutters. I have decided to watch the sun rise on a midsummer morning in Florence. It has been years since I’ve done this. From my window I can see a custard yellow wall and some terracotta roof tiles tinged by an indigo light.
I love so much about this. I love I get to read this after spending time with you in Florence and being familiar with things you describe. As always, a treat! A long awaited treat this time !
You’ve got another gift, Claire! You write beautifully. Your descriptions take us all to your observed world, which we share with delight! Stay well and keep writing.
How unique and beautiful! I can picture your jar and how precious it is to you, for holding on all your special moments, feelings....and the light of the sunrise, illuminating and gently caressing all that is meaningful and you🤗
I like your jar description ! We all have jars, some are maybe bigger than other some have more than one. All my girls are in a very special jar I keep on a shelf which a look at often.
You have so eloquently , with strong deep reflection and emotion, described love, florence’s delights, life’s treasures and honest realisations - a joy to read and igniting thoughts and emotions of my own. Thank you for sharing such personal insights into your italian experiences. I await in anticipation for a follow up……
I loved reading this, I could imagine being where you described these beautiful moments. And I can totally relate to those passionate feelings of watching a sunrise. It feels like you gain an extra hour in your day, being awake before the world wakes up. I look forward to reading more. Thank you for sharing your thought. 💜

❤️ Beautiful piece of art. Loved the idea of the sun rays as fingers of God. Brilliant!
