Adrift in ripples of silk and gold, the sun falls on the shore and gilds my soul. Celebrating with a sea guddle today in my favourite wellies - had an acceptance on my *first ever* poem! Feeling #grateful #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #poetry #amwriting #WritingCommunity #stayhome

When we can't have wings, to flee, to stay here and now. When we must retreat into our shells, our cells, our past hell. We shall seek a crack to let the light back in to heal. Let us live with ease and remain free of memories. #weewalks #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #trauma #recovery #ptsd

#showusthechinksoflight Accidental Self-portrait When Sun-blinded On A Spring Day... OR... On The Horizon There Is Hope Portobello beach in all its gilded, wind-bitten finery. 🌞🌊❤️ @portyphoto @tribeporty #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland

SOUND ON 🔊 The synth sounds of starlings, from another time and place. On this distant planet, we are kept safe. Glittering in flight, they flutter and flock, in command, whilst we can only watch. #weewalks #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #birdsong #birdsongwalks #birdsofinstagram #starling

Lost in the sand and slick of sea coal, alone until the tide returns to shore. As small as a fingernail, a baby starfish floats here, floundering: home is nowhere near. #weewalks #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #covid_19 #starfish

Asteroidea here, at last, from further shores. Lost all winter but now swim home. Fallen stars carrying hope. We find moments of joy once more. #weewalks #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #covid_19

A potter, a pootle, a brief breath of fresh air, fifty feet apart, a wave hello over there! My limbs still heavy from flu need rest and self-care. #weewalks #wildsoulwalks #StayAtHome #Edinburgh #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #shells #daffodils #spring

SOUND ON 🔊🔊 They nest unseen after rain, hail, and sleet. Tawny and drab, but host angels in their throats. A quarrel and flutter, safe in branches and knots. #howmanywordsforsparrows #wildsoulwalks #naturewriting #naturephotography #naturewalks #birdsongwalks #worklifebalance #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #birdwatcher #birder #birdsofinstagram #sparrows #sparrowsofinstagram

Hafrun finds us on the shore. We measure her thirty year span of velvet and bone. In our palms we cup her and carry her home, where she will drift, then sink into the silt like a stone. #oceanquahog #wildsoulwalks #besidetheseaside #beachwalks #Edinburgh #naturewalks #naturephotography #naturewriting #relaxation #mentalhealth #metime #wellness #coorie #Scotland #walkingscotland #walksofinstagram #writersofinstagram #walking #LoveScotland #thisisedinburgh #Edinburghlife #Edinburghstory #hiddenscotland #insta_scotland #thisisscotland #ig_scotland #shells #seashells #beachcombingfinds
