Green watering can –

Half full so put a stick in ~

For Bonbon the mouse.

#267/365

Sunny and windy –

What we call ‘Odin weather’ ~

Sheltered nerines sway.

#266/365

Picking blackberries –

Before Púca gets them all ~

Some already slimed.

#253/365

Japanese Bindweed –

Beating the briars for light ~

Busy bees approve.

#252/365

Deadheading lilies –

Leaves left as fuel for next year ~

Still taller than me.

#249/365

Burdened by their weight –

Gladioli bent over ~

Ready for the vase.

#245/365

Blackberries ripen –

Honey Spurge seed pods explode ~

Curious robin.

#244/365

September cold switch –

After a sparrow summer ~

Other birds return.

Nerines

Long day gardening –

Finally sat down to rest ~

With naked ladies.

Harvesting

Picking blackberries –

Against the fading grey light ~

Can’t tell black from red.
