"Let your tears fall to the earth, they feed the land".
Anna Ziman - Open To The Goddess. 30/10/51 - 19/11/2018
“Don't be ashamed to weep; 'tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. But there must be sunlight also. A wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us.”
― Brian Jacques, Taggerung
My extraordinary and beautiful dear friend Anna Ziman 30/10/51 - 19/11/2018. You empowered women and healed the land. Blessings evermore held in the heart of the world. All my love Amanda xxx
From each brave eye shall sprout a tree
fruit that dangles therefrom
the purpled world will dance upon
Between my lips which did sing
a rose shall beget the spring
that maidens whom passion wastes
will lay between their little breasts
My strong fingers beneath the snow
Into strenuous birds shall go
my love walking in the grass
their wings will touch with her face
and all the while shall my heart be
With the bulge and nuzzle of the sea
when gods let my body be

My Son’s grave ,with a Whitebeam planted on it . A natural burial ground in a wood in Wiltshire
On this October day I’m scattering my Sister’s ashes on the grave
It is so peaceful here. The small tree is growing nicely and he’s lying in the heart of Mother Nature without a coffin,we faithfully carried out his wishes
I’d like to share - the little bronze plaque near the tree on the ground is engraved with his epitaph , which he wrote himself. It reads
Do not fear death, oh sweet earthly child,
For death is a cushion so soft dark and mild .
We lay our heads in it each time we sleep
And it shows us the secrets
Of the Earth so deep

In Loving Memory From Joanna Cardew
Plant your blessings here and share the love. Pictures and words welcome xx
