nausea...
I take a walk through the autumn garden
white chrysanthemums primed to burst into flower
five chrysalises swaying in the breeze, a sixth has fallen
grass shiny wet from showers then lazy sun
the lemons and feijoas are ripening day by day
further afield, I can just make out the Papamoa Hills
I stop, inspire, and draw strength from the pā sites

I was stunned recently, to be awarded the Versatile Blogger Award from RoughWaterJohn the Pirate. He has the most incredible blog that I feel - WOW, blown away by it all. It comes with a few requirements though, all of which are reasonable and not too demanding.
ReplyDeleteThe three requirements are:
1. Thank the person who gave you the reward.
2. List seven random facts about yourself.
3. Nominate fifteen new bloggers for the award.
Now John did not stick to the criteria, and I don’t believe I will be either. I have gone for quality rather than quantity. I think that your blog fits the requirements.
