                Such beautifully sad longing...

                Lovely memory Pat, sometimes one sees a little root of those strawberries that have seeded, I found such a plant in the neighbours pot which he wanted emptying. It has now spread quite a bit in  an odd patch of ground. Sadly I have never weeded it, but after reading your poem I shall do so in the near future. Thank you.

                Lovely!! Isn't it sad that most of us have to spend much of our lives longing for something so natural? Maybe if we had stuck to farming....
