Calor Lily. Nonet

Calor Lily pure of soul and heart

Growing in harmony with Daisies

By the church door reaching high

Clarity shines apart

Underneath the Yew

Sing God’s praises

The Calor 

Lily

Pure

Holiday Haiku

Blue skies, sound of waves

Sun hot, so un-English like

Loving holidays.

Porchestet Sunset.

The sunset on Porchestet Castle  and something is emerging from the mud.

There are men crawling the last yards out of the mud and tidal water that separates where we stand and castle walls.

A Navel instructor in fatigues stands on the wall watching these black clothed and muddy figures. 

I ventured to ask him what was happening… He shot us grin and replied, “I asked them to touch the castle walls for me”. Those castle walls were over half a mile away.

We watch them fighting nature who was trying to suck them back into her jaws.

Finally they made it up the steep walls and callapsed on to the pavement. They did look tired and due to the heat they were having water poured all-over them.

Then they had to run back up to their barracks for a shower and hopefully a rest.

Once they all left we left the waters edge and walked the dogs back across the field.

No wifi: Thoughts from France

Hi  everyone

There is no  wifi   or  proper  phone  signal  so  I  cannot  us  the  phone  to blog.

The  hardwired internet  here is  awful,  so  slow  that  you  could  make  a  three  course  meal  while it loads!  I  am exaggerating   but only  a little.

So  I  shall  try  to  read  and like   what  I  can  of  all  your  fabulous   blogs   but  it  would  take  too long  to  comment  or  publish!!! Hubby   has only  so much  patience ….and  come  to  that  so have I.

 

So  love  to  you all from France  and  see  you  all next  week!!

Love willow

The View

This is the view from my sun bed in the orchard of the Gite that we are staying in at the moment in Brittany. 

As you can see it is a lovely and peaceful view. The silence is almost total and really adds to the view.

As I am on holiday I can show  you some other views too! 

Josselin  town square. 

Cafe where we had a drink this afternoon.

A Chateau. 

In my view Brittany is a beautiful place! 

Thoughts from France

Oh! It nice to stop and think 

Away from strife and kitchen sink.

To take on a different outlook

To rest and have time to read a book.
What lays ahead we don’t care or know

We still have to decide where to go.

If I am not here please don’t worry

I am on a break from hurry and scurry.
