Day 10 South Africa. In my sister’s garden.

And the Lord God said unto the serpent, because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and
And I will put enmity between thee and the women, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Genesis 3 : 14,15

The granite, sedum, fern and possibly a type of zebra grass very much like hen and chickens but very tough / thick …all growing close together in a garden.

The majesty of a mountain, a presence, ever in site from the cared for garden.

The mug is from Kruger with the granite rock a reminder of elephant hide.

This mountain, the arched back of the earth risen before us it made me feel humble like a beggar, just lucky to be here at all, even briefly.

A few minutes ago I went to tidy the bin in the corner but the dark brown leaf moved…

He that is bitten by a snake is afraid of a rope. (I feel like this right 0now just having touched one)
Edward Albee

A baby spitting cobra had come to visit. My brother -in – law has released it a short walk from the house. A question. Where are the parents?

The world of man is dreaming, it has gone mad in its sleep, and a snake is strangling it, but it can’t wake up.
D.H. Lawrence

Yes that was strong but we do need to think of our environment and a lot more.
