Harvest Time

Another month has passed and we can now feel the hints of Autumn in the air, summer has been such a busy and happy time, so apologies for the lateness of this post.
Since Lammas I've been watching the changing landscape and the greening of the cut hayfields. I wanted to share with you this painting and poem, written for my lovely young friend to remind her of summer.

Magic Meadow

Under summer evening sun in the time after haymaking,
Climbing from greening fields she reached the fairy mound

then sat serenely amongst fantastic flowers.

She connected with black cat who watched

Brownie as he tumbled and laughed.

All silently seen by Heron.

Each at ease in a magic meadow spilt from nature’s book.

and some detail

Enjoy this turning of the seasons, it is less than three weeks until the Autumn Equinox, already my blueberry bushes are changing into their reds and golds and I'm looking forward to more amazing colours from nature.

Hugs
