Bromham Fields

autumn rainbows stripe vegetable september across bromham fields; roundway island, hazed in mist on a marrow orange sea wiltshire sunbeams fall gold on the cockle pickers green fields, fishermen; down fruit littered ditches glint glitter strewn rivers of light © Gail Foster September 16th 2016

I love the imagery, Gail. I had to look up exactly what bromham was and found out it is in Wiltshire. Thanks for teaching me something today:)

My pleasure, and thanks for the read. I go through Bromham on the bus sometimes, and the views across the striped fields of Oliver's Camp and Roundway Hill are just lovely. I've been wanting to describe them for a while. All the best to you.
