It was cold, but it was not cold enough for frost, not yet. Now the sun is shining and most of the moisture has gone. The soil is warm enough and damp enough for earthworms and other little animals. Did the mole dig another mole-hill as it was looking for something to eat? Or is this a new ant-hill? Is the mole eating ants? Nebes ger rag hedhyw Some words for today bulük (coll.) earthworms > bulügen (f)   gellys gone (va of mos to go) glebor (m) moisture, dampness, wetnes...

Tomorrow the day will be shorter than the night. The moon is waxing; soon it will be full. It looks very big and bright tonight, behind the trees and clouds. The trees are increasing too, bit by bit, day after day. At first they are small, then they are too tall and have to be cut lower. Can you...

Trink ew an mor dû lebmyn - nag ens da gen nagonan.  The air is dense with the sound of bees in the hedge. The hazel trees are overgrown with ivy. The ivy is in flower and the flowers are much loved by the wild hairy bees. How sweet these little animals are! The blackberries are sour now - nobody likes them.

Gone are the long days. We no longer need our summer clothes. We can put aside our lightweight cotton shirts and summer dresses and bring out our heavy jerseys,  our cardigans and other woollies. Soon we will be clad in waterproof coats and wellingtons (waterproof boots). They can be expensive, but they are better than wet feet.

It is a reservoir, with fresh water for all the people in the surrounding countryside. It is less than half full. We must be sparing with our water usage. Spring and summer were dry, drier than usual. There was not enough rain to keep the reservoir full, and all the rivers are low as we...

The right words are not coming. Is there anything special about this day? I don't know. I cannot remember exactly! Perhaps inspiration will come tomorrow. There will be something better to write, I hope.
