A return to the scene
Thursday, April 20, 2017
In yesterday's post I shared pictures of the oil seed rape fields and talked about how the scent brings back childhood memories. In a freak co-incidence the day took me back to the exact spot that I imagine in my mind's eye when I smell that fragrance. How incredibly unexpected, considering I hadn't been there for the best part of 17 years. Sure enough, within half a mile I spied a striking yellow crop so I wound down the windows to let in the full strength of stink. My face broke into such a smile and I'm glad I didn't encounter anyone else to interrupt my moment of bliss.
How curious life can be.

Perfect. I opened the door when my Dad arrived last night to hear the music he was playing in the car - Simon and Garfunkel - it took me back years! I love it when those unexpected moments happen xx
ReplyDeleteAh, the mind's eye really is best in the bliss of solitude!
ReplyDeleteI can't bear it when I'm out running, it is so thick and cloying it makes it hard to breathe
ReplyDeleteI love to hear your comments xx
