Sea slashes, sand drags
The harbinger cries
As the bull rolls in
Steel through the waves
Tumble of rug up the beach
Shaking the cows as planks in a storm
Hanging at Blithe! Check out yet another beautiful sim Harlow Heslop has put together!
Then you smiled over your shoulder
For a minute, I was stone-cold sober
I pulled you closer to my chest
And you asked me to stay over
I said, I already told ya
I think that you should get some rest
Could this possibly help us to cool off in the dog days of summer? This is a wintry view of The Pyramids, an artificial hill resulting from massive landscape gardening in Erba Park. It was a convenient way to get rid of excavated earth, but in warmer seasons the hilll has also become an attraction for park visitors seeking a spot for picnicking, playing games or enjoying the view from an elevated position. Joggers even demonstrate their prowess by blithely moving up and over the hill. And young people head up the hill for late-night parties with portable barbecues, cases of beer and boom boxes. (They sometimes need a reminder to turn the volume down around 11 p.m.) [FUJI2518_lr_2000]
Thank you all for the clicks, comments & faves.
The title of Noël Coward's play Blithe Spirit was taken from Shelley's poem "To a Skylark" and refers to the bird being lighthearted, cheerful and carefree. I'm sure that Shelley called the Skylark blithe spirit because it can sing non-stop for hours at a time. They usually sing while hovering over meadows but this one was singing from a wall next to a meadow. He has his crest raised and I must admit that I had not noticed the white collar sandwiched between the buff cheeks and breast. You can also see the long, straight hind-claw which apparently facilitates walking through grass, a feature it shares with Meadow Pipit. Its scientific name Alauda arvensis translates as lark of the field. I posted a juvenile Skylark recently with patterned feathers: www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/54582450471/in/dateposted but this is a plain-plumaged adult taken two days ago not far from home.
