looking for wellies
expecting torrential rain

the early morning still shining on…
the mist
the unfinished
rough edges ~
work still
to do!
but by the afternoon
~ about 2 today ~
the final dusting began!
Gill McGrath© September 10 The Field 7 am
time to dance ~
In swirling Dirndl
The Land now dressed
Rolled wrapped and pressed
In Aran knit
And Fair Isle stitch

in the rain
under the hedge
autumn is busy whispering

Rural ride
Just rolling over the fields
Chewing the straw
With a bite in the air
Spitting rain

Prelude
Last night
The evening blush
Promised early morning sun
Yet over there at break
The bird still sits
Hidden in a mist
And on the chimney hush
Another barely wakes
While the long legged watchman
On the roof
Quietly stares

first shot: yesterday evening from window ~ late
other shots: this morning from window ~ early
simple lines
Saw an early bird against a tiny patch of sky
~Picked red tomatoes ready washed in rain
Stacked garden chairs all wet and sun lit baked
Picked cut some figs and ate~
Then the cloudless sky at sunset late
Moon purple climbing high…….
Gill McGrath© August 27 [6 am to 8 pm]
lazy days…..
Now the morning wakes
to a silent chorus
bird song gone
the blackbird
sits
quietly
alone
without a care
while
just one
pigeon
in some far off tree
barely heard now
breaks into a moan ~ Gill McGrath© August 15
[ a silence fills the first morning air now that territorial lines are less defined and bird families are mostly grown… although they still gather in large numbers all day, for the fast food waiting for them at their usual eating places]
sun gone. floating wingless….. over little trees.

Hey Robin…
Where have you been? (long time no see)
Over the hills and I’m back he said (looking through the window)
And it seems to me
Everything’s still in place….
The lines
The trees on the horizon
Gone
Swept up in the rain
Like mist
And birds
Like me
Still sit….
OK! Say Cheese again!
