could this be a new look for spring?
This hat has been in my collection for two decades. I decided that the old black ribbon, stained from years of garden perspiration, needed to go. I fell in love with this french-wire spool and hope that this updated version of straw sustains me a few more years.
debut in the field last Sunday
The new bow quite resembles the french cherry jam spooned onto my crispbread both rich in color and sweet appearance—
rich and sweet
Yet not as rich and sweet as my views in the field last Sunday—
my love of barns continues
nothing like wood and metal
such elegant patina
a fine pair
bones of this farm at rest
teasel remains
I adore this time of year when views promise spring,
yet winter dormancy continues to color vistas.
