Cobweb curtains

The garden had so many cobweb curtains this morning.
There had been such a hard frost overnight, that stayed all day.
It reminded me of the Christmas story of the spiders spinning a web over the cave where Mary , Joseph and Jesus hid to escape the soldiers sent by Herod to kill.
Because the cave was covered with webs the soldiers didn’t go in, thinking nobody could have entered it.
It then got me reminiscing about the Christmas books we bought every year for the children.. a new one each year.
The day having hard elements, my feelings were both happy and melancholy.. .
But that’s ok
