Tonight I had a bonfire. Not too good for mother, but very good for me. Spiralling smoke curled onwards and upwards. Wanton destruction of old *******. Garden remnants and excremental furniture. I feel cleansed. My garden feels the same as me. Flickering dancing colours whirl and crack. Increased space in my garden, Pleasure be only mine. My tree is but a little charred, her magnificence it shall survive. Next spring presenting blossoms and I know that she's alive. Resilient she be. My autumn, spring and summer tree. (C) LIVVI
