country morning 1

up to the store
paper n'coffee
drift on home
waving, quick "toot"
to each neighbour
they wave back
they know the car
slow country turn
left lane for a left turn
back down the laneway
too far to walk

  2. What a fun country morning ride. I love the friendliness of the country and miss that.http://judyidliketosay.blogspot.com/2010/11/permission-granted.html

  3. The familiarity of country neighbours - is there anything that is more gentle and comforting? Since moving from a big city to a small country village, the inclusion that one feels from being known and knowing just about everyone has its own comforts.

  4. Ollie, you have described the country quite well.
    Nice.

  5. I loved that, when I lived in a village - everyone would lift just fingers up off the steering wheel in informal greeting - so lovely.

  6. Old ollie,
    I just loved the totally laid back feel to that lifestyle!

    Best wishes, Eileen
