Mown Hay, Sky Kiss and Lunch

The scent of the mown hay as we walked along the side of the field in the lane was just lovely, so evocative of summertime.  We met the farmer just around the corner who told us that he would be rolling it after a couple of days more of sunshine and then it would feed the (zebra) ponies though the winter.

There have been very few contrails though lockdown but today there was a sky kiss for all to see.

Lunch  today was very pretty – and tasty, of course!

Lentil and Tomato salad with fried Halloumi, decorated with Basil leaves and Borage flowers on a bed of home grown lettuce.

A Poem, A Pool and A Pimms

We are having  another few beautiful Summer Days as August draws to a close. This poem by Katy Lue called ‘Summer Days’ sums up the feeling today.

The air is alive on a summer day
it compliments the sweet aroma that weaves within,
The air is humid on a summer day,
it sticks to the world in such a way that the wind must shake it off,
The air sings on a summer day
it rises and falls with the melody’s sway,
The air is love on a summer day
it watches the lovers enjoying the weather and wonders itself ‘What could be better?’ 
The air surrounds on a summer day
it surrounds all and loves all and is the foundation to such a sweet summer day. 

We were invited to a neighbour’s pool which was just lovely and the reflections of the trees and shrubs in the water caught my eye.DSCN4485Then, this evening the lovely Mr S made me a pretty Pimms.DSCN4490
