A Monthly Country Diary
|
Somewhere in our memory
there is a record of every scene, scent and sound we have
ever experienced. With some effort I find I can unlock these and
bring them out to enjoy once again. Sometimes
a wet day will bring back to me those damp
wintry mornings when a cold east wind would be blowing and at once I
am again a young girl waiting at the bottom of
the drive for the bus. I loved to hear the
skylarks as they rose higher and higher in the sky, singing all the
way.
Life in the country follows a different calendar from life in towns
and cities. The end of the farmer's year would
seem to be when the crops are harvested, not
December. Having said that I will tell you about a little girl’s
year on the farm.
