We escaped to Lanyon today.
Wrapped in layers, revelling in the chilled air.
A temporary hiatus from Summer.
Rock plonking by the river's edge, occasional car rumbling high above our heads across a narrow bridge. Wind through towering poplars. Sun on rippled water. Clouds cruising across cornflower blue skies.
Drinking in the summer colour of the homestead garden.
The promise of a long awaited Autumn hinted in amongst the foliage.
Farm.
Time to wander, to taste, to breathe in.
Little boys and blackberry hedgerows. Lingering for just one more sun-sweetened treat. Stained fingers, ruby lips, contented grin.
Shape, texture, colour, scent. Drink it in, a sensory feast.
Sulphur crested cockatoos take raucous flight.
Time to sit, no need to think.
Generations of stories, captured. Time stood still.
Immersed in soul satisfying beautiful.
