From my garden just yesterday.
The Song of the Rose Hip Fairy
Cool dewy morning,
Blue sky at noon,
White mist at evening,
And large yellow moon;
Blackberries juicy
For staining of lips;
And scarlet, O scarlet
The Wild Rose Hips!
Gay as a gipsy*
All Autumn long,
Here on the hedge-top
This is my song.

*yes, "gipsy" is spelled like that by Cicely Mary Barker
Hope you had a delightful weekend.
Welcome to Thanksgiving week!
