... to Celebrate Winter's Colours

The Colours of Winter

It's a bleak, grey day today. Even the wood pigeon in the guava tree has stopped his greedy eating and is sitting still with feathers puffed up, hoping for some sunshine, I expect.
  So to brighten the day I gathered these examples of cheerful winter colours. I brought them indoors and arranged them in a leaf-shaped bowl. The glowing orange of the persimmons, the sunny yellow of the lemons, and the red berries of the cotoneaster, make me smile each time I look at them!
