A Nature's Path

App challenge is no electrical gadgets for the day. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1012896151224373248?s=19 The times when fireside discussions were the main source of communicating. Now gone.

            Via Lord Alan Sugar on Twitter https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1012752393283436544?s=19 #nature #30DaysWild app challenge look up at the clouds. Per chance an unidentifiable craft cruising through clouds on the penultimate day of my nature conservation challenge, celebrating the natural formations. Achieved. #APoemADay @WildLondon @nature_org

App challenge is to find growths/lichens in crevices. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1012621827275919360?s=19 This was a challenge that took a while to find as I had to decide whether I should take a photo of growths between walls and pavements.  Then I saw these 2 places on different days over the past 29 days. 

App challenge is to add a flower decor to your clothing, as an accessory. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1012212524157194240?s=19 Now I can see flowers in a vase as an added accessory.

App challenge is to scatter seeds in places that can't be reached. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1011949399965134848?s=19 The awesome news is, now the plaque that is displayed on the flower seeds stand is to encourage others to think about Wildlife when planting flower seeds.

App challenge is to make a daisy chain. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1011509102193922053?s=19 I couldn't find nice ones to make a chain so I made one for my tote bag. Daisies are considered wildflowers and weeds.

App challenge is to look at the moon with a periscope  (?). I don't have one!! https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1011084282197094400?s=19

App challenge is to see the sunrise I've seen the sunrise on a cloudy morning and it's like the heavens are bringing in the day with colour!!

App challenge is to drink some dandelion roots. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1010488686566367232?s=19 I couldn't find dandelion roots so I got some dandelion, burdock and hawthorn tea.

App challenge, Look up at the clouds. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1010095578636832768?s=19 I can look up at the clouds all day. It's fascinating to see the different formations ranging from shapes of shallows to ships and animal shapes.

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1009691721716858880?s=19 App challenge turn over a log to discover life what's beneath it. In the past I've seen the long insects which aren't as flat as cockroaches. Even nooks and crannies are habitats for insects.

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1009380580398641152?s=19 App challenge go ecofriendly. I've been making handmade soaps since 2008. I use a glycerine based as when I went to a craft/fashion market (unless you make tons and tons, storage space plus daily expenses, like with a normal job, leaves nothing gained). It's very eco friendly and nice to use.

App challenge crochet, paint in the wild. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1009017518030295040?s=19 It has to be experienced.  This has to be one of the best ways of relaxing. Now I'll make my own bracelets in the wild. 

App challenge is to use a re-usable cup. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1008652130163613697?s=19 Especially with pollution in the oceans and refuse sites, re-usable cups and containers are a vital part of keeping the air we breathe, breathable.  When there's litter everywhere and the streets are dirty, it affects our breathing and the hygiene level is low.

App challenge was to shape the book pressed leafs into animal shapes. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1008246930160472065?s=19 The challenges really are worth doing.

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1007968493935976450?s=19 App challenge was to visit a woodland. A 2-day event is taking place this weekend but trying to find the actual venue area in this woodland proved to be difficult.

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1007575964006735873?s=19 The app challenge was to dip my feet in a river. It is just as revitalising as walking barefoot on grass. It's like my mind went back to a moment of how it felt natural to be in touch with nature.

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1007147126600630272?s=19 The app challenge was to research a wildflower. These could be Sweet Woodruff.

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1006818017982976000?s=19 The app challenge is to collect some leaves and press them between books. I pressed flowered in a cheap flower press when I was at school. It can fill a book of flowers in no time!

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1006445692469080064?s=19 I've never really subscribed to a gym as it doesn't compare to exercising in the open air. Besides the cost,  the view is nicer and exercising when it's raining a little is an experience never to be forgotten. 

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1006106980233175043?s=19 The app challenge is to see the changes that take place after an hour. 2 hours later...

London Wildlife Trust app challenge: Pick up litter. If we all put our own litter in public bins which are everywhere,  parks will be even more beautiful. https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1005376319717244929?s=19

https://twitter.com/a_naturespath/status/1004689846554841088?s=19 #30DaysWild Poem in the wild A pathway perceived sounds of nature amplifies a return 2 that original state. A glimpse acknowledged sights of regaining by-passed moments precisely envisaged. An eclectic re-visit of surrounds, timeless Forgotten Now a requisite. #APoemADay https://t.co/tURtvESuqe

The challenge I chose today was a recording of birds twittering.  Was beautiful to listen to! #30DaysWild The challenge I chose today was a recording of birds @twitter ing.

At around 12 mid-day, as if propelled by an invisible hand, she’d turn to face the sun, as it scorched the lavender buds in the tiny city garden that has been her home since a juvenile.  She stops nibbling on the apple tree bark and almost stands tall with her tiny front paw to her chest – to greet a plane flying high above altitude towards the Atlantic Ocean, where some of her ancestry roots originated.  Her distant relatives were also from Eurasia and Africa yet as far...

#30DaysWild Barefoot on grass is exhilarating. The feeling of re-energising is inexplicably gratifying. Nature is simply awe-inspiring. #APoemADay (And excellent suggestion on the app) pic.twitter.com/gWflbyW22G — A Naturespath (@a_naturespath) June 4, 2018

Great news that Sir Alex Ferguson is out of hospital, back home & determined to make United's first home game of the new season. I can't even imagine the scale of roaring that will greet him if he does. pic.twitter.com/OGXzTCZcmd — Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) 3 June 2018

#30DaysWild Another suggestion was to make a wrist band with grass blades. I couldn't find grass blades long enough to make a band so I decorated my watch just now. pic.twitter.com/w5v2VDxZbz — A Naturespath (@a_naturespath) June 3, 2018 #time to #think of #nature 's #path be that person consistently conserving #wildlife 's ways for future's worth. #APoemADay https://t.co/QTXJTbY6XP — A Naturespath (@a_naturespath) June 3, 2018

#Day2 of #30DaysWild sent in by Lucy Owens from our Facebook group - 'We were going to ‘nap in nature’ not much napping went on, but we had a chat with some cows!' Brilliant 😂🐮🐄 pic.twitter.com/tlyTIzEJum — 30 Days Wild (@30DaysWild) 2 June 2018 The tiny speck that I am, is nature telling me I have a small place in the scheme of things. Nothing grand. Nothing of essence. #APoemADay https://t.co/qqwmZNI955 — A Naturespath (@a_naturespath) 2 June 2018

A Queen and a Fool  A dialogue  Queen. I'm reading "Aestas".  Do you know who has written this?  Fool. You are wrong. "Aestas" is a work in progress. Walter Daniel is still writing that.  Queen. Who is Walter Daniel?  Fool. A poet and translator, above all.  Queen. What poem does he aim to provide?  Fool. "Aestas" is a long sequence of poems that are built around various semantic layers. (sigh) Modest whores are sagacious,  So let them read Walter's works;  Idle princesses are salacious,  So let them devour Walter's words.  Queen. How can I contact him?  Fool. Send e-mail to anapaest at gmail dot com.  Queen. What painters does he prefer most?  Fool. Jackson Pollock, Camille Pissarro, Georgia O'Keeffe, Andrew Wyeth, Odilon Redon, Claude Monet, John Atkinson Grimshaw, Alfred Sisley, Joan Milo.  Queen. To what music does he remain loyal?  Fool. Works of...
