Father and Son

Queue the music....

I hope you are listening to Cat Stevens now, singing his rather melancholy song as a father speaks to his son of all he has yet to face in life.

This is what I could imagine father magpie wishes to tell his son, as they sit together on the fence, each with one leg lifted, passing the time of day, while I did some gardening.

Unfortunately the mozzies were as thick as the patches of dead plants I had to remove, casualties of out hot summer just gone. But I'm thinking of the fun I will soon be having, as I visit the garden centre and choose some new plants. :)
