I was washing pots and pans and there it was, before my eyes. So I wrote the thing down!

The beasties keep me busy, the work is unending and there is more isolation than is good for me.

I miss sometimes the quiet noise that seems to come from nowhere and everywhere at once. A rooster greets the sun, and the barn stirs, the dogs want in or out, the wind is quiet and there is nothing in this good earth that can compare with the start of a new day there.<br /><br />I know winters are hard, I know that raising those beauties is both a labor of love and hard labor as well, but I do envy you. Maybe my memory is playing tricks with me, but now I right I could swear I<br />remember the smell of the wet grass as I was opening the gates.<br /><br />What you wrote is simple stunning and alive.A.Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06947308878002639964noreply@blogger.com
