Growing old disgracefully

By GOD

THIS OLD HOUSE HERE BY THE ROAD

I'm not normally sentimental, but the Professor and I were singing to each other in the car today and this number had me in tears.  

Our garden is full of baby birds at the moment.  The wee chaffinch in extra sat on our doorstep for ages.  I think he knows we adopt wee people in need of a home. 

It was a slower day than we've had for a while.  I sat in the bee-loud garden for a while, watching the peacock butterflies on the buddleja and the hoverflies on the  fennel and felt so blessed.
