Shorties!

It has been necessary to expose the knees,

and a portion of the legs below the knees,

but not above.

The reason?

A whoppingly warm and sunny day,

and Lester putting forth the suggestion,

as I went off to play the piano for a local church service,

that perhaps it would be a good idea,

when I returned home,

to get on with doing the fencing,

I, in my 'clean going-out' gear,

thought 'not',

that it would be a good idea to do nothing,

it being Sunday,

and therefore a day of rest.

Ha!

 

And a little goat was born in the sunshine,

out in the field,

and a little chick,

one of three hatchlings,

was stood upon and done onto death

by the feet of his mum,

and gently roasted in the sunshine,

until we had the time to pick it up,

and take it down the woods,

for other beings to eat,

and Lissie did a 'Look at me I've got horns'

as she play fought with Billy Goat,

out in the field,

in the sunshine.

 

And my knees, but not my thighs, saw the light of day,

the first time this year,

as I sat and did my knitting,

in my shorties,

in between helping Lester

do the fencing.

 

Hope your week ahead is a good one.
