I'd already wandered around the grounds of Mandalay House for more than an hour.
I Imagined spaces full of celebration and laughter, then quiet contemplative souls seeking the healing salve of a peaceful garden juxtaposed with the focus of the gardener creating, shaping and nurturing.
... and then I saw her.
She did not move as she sat on that cold stone plinth untroubled by rain or sun or birds.
Oh to be able to sit so still, at least for a little while and enjoy the sunshine and the garden of Mandalay House.
