Array ( [sid] => 145288 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Along the grassy wayside [time] => 2008-09-20 13:31:12 [hometext] => a ramble.......... but it is my moment and my ramble! [bodytext] => Sun is in full blue sky, bright and yellow, like a candy lemon drop only larger.
Weight of the day seems to burden the soul,
no more of this along this grassy wayside.

One cannot overlook the sights, the smells and the pleasant views.
Shut off the radio and ignore the crap, flowers smell better than that.......anyday!
There is room along the grassy wayside for more than two.

Handful of sunflowers, carefully taken, replaced by some pennies tossed to mother earth.
Take something return a bit more, a lesson many seem these days to have forgotten.
Not us, not them, not my handful of friends...... so we share..

Mother nature shares right back........

A wonderful and inviting work here, Michelle. The grassy wayside does seem like a nice place to rest awhile, lol. This reminds me a lot of driving around the rural areas of Alabama. It doesn't seem that anything modern is of value and that seems alright to me. Noises, the radio, all is crap (as you put it) compared to nature's melody and the sky that hovers it.

Love the sunflowers, the cat and the dog. How big is Gary's truck, lol?

Beautiful!

Daniel
