Idyllic Road

The Idyllic Road There is on the plain that looks like an African Savannah in hazy summer morning, a road, where the hills begins, that is flanked by cork trees and appears like an avenue where royalty ought to drive through when receiving our adulation; also, not to forget, the sight splendid uniforms ladies hats and snapping flags in a fairytale breeze, I also wanted to see if the grapes on the vines had been harvested, and if not why the delay? Yes, the grapes had been picked which pleased me and leaves on the vines are turning sepia. A season is over. I took a few photos of the cork tree road and said my farewell I will not be back here before spring. I know of a place where a lake appears in winters I´ll go there sit on my bike and hope to see a fresh water mermaid.
