the moon was hiding
above the new place
i saw it
barely
one roof is green now
happened while i was away,
rain will make music as
we work
i hung this to look at
and the morning light caught
this landmap of cloth
my neighbor put up a sign
with a correction
that tickles me
ever resourceful are
north country folk.
last week was filled with errands
driving to get the mac battery fixed (200+ miles)
and eye appointment and oil change
prep for three upcoming classes
the morgan and long ridge
(there may still be room...)
but in my little nearby town,
canton,
i sat on the bridge abutment
between oil change and optometrist
between oil change and optometrist
and watched and listened
as the grasse river
vigorously hurried
north.
the best was sitting by the river--How lovely is the 'Grasse"
ReplyDeleteYour neighbor's "fill wanted" sign is priceless. I too am a fan of hand lettered signs. They are little windows.
ReplyDeletems. yes, and so fast and full this summer!
ReplyDeletealice, yes. i couldn't get out of my car for a better picture because his house is RIGHT there!
That sign -chuckle!
ReplyDeleteI only have eyes for the landmap of cloth .... and then on to the other images. Such a beautiful river.
ReplyDeletelandmap=wonderful.
ReplyDeletevalerie, yep!
ReplyDeleterobyn, thank you, it's pleasing me now that i can look at it, and the river ALWAYS pleases me.
indie, happy!

ReplyDeletecathy, must be an american thing. fill to make a yard, in this case. i think his yard is sinking and it was built rather haphazardly in a low spot.

ReplyDeleteWe have the same sign here usually Clean Fill Wanted and prior to building, love the landmap. x te
trace, usually they add clean, but this looks pretty haphazard to me!
