©️2020 Ontheland

The moon is not visible during the days before and after the new moon (January 24).

The new year mentioned is the Lunar New Year (January 25 in 2020), celebrated during the second new moon after winter solstice.

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
