An irregular, irreverent, post-modern account of the surreal, the ordinary, and the bizarre happenings on and around the Felia lavender farm in Crete

Tuesday, April 03, 2007

We have:


blossom on the coramilo,

wall to wall oxalis spotted now here and therewith orange and pink vetches,

nasturtiums climbing up the ramblingrose's plegma,

early lavender,

olive blossom and budding mulberrycuttings alongisde the fruiting koukia that still has flowers -

nothistles this year but the bitumen peas make up for them

 the borage and asphodel,

the chaffinches and the greattits,

the crows and the gerakia.


We saw a swallow today as we sat drinking coffee and watching the locals prepare for an Easter opening - does that make itsummer?
