Don't know if you really missed me
Out of sight, out of heart they say
I'm back from Drenten Heathland
Just came in again yesterday

A four day trip of hotter hotst
And poor me can't stand the heat
I've missed our bugman Balladeer
Bugs ate me top down to my feet

Thirty and more degrees Celsius
I longed for some cool white snow
While standing in open heatherland
Yelling 'She's ok, just let her go'

Again it was a beautiful trip
Saw sun rise like a big red ball
Low mist on acres still asleep
No camera, so I've to tell you all

The heather was of a purple color
As far as your eyes could see
sheep sheltered in the shadow
under little groups of trees

I saw the sheepdogs working
Every time it's a beautiful sight
To see a herd of fourhundred sheep
moving through the landscape wide

Yes I forgot to bring my camera
You have to see it through my eyes
I hope I've painted you a picture
But there's no sound to hear my sighs

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

(smiles) Oh Titia, I know you must have had a lovely time up there, sweet friend, I love heather so so much, it is beautiful and has a gorgeous perfume and the sheepdogs I heard are so lovely and lively! (kiss on cheek) I'm so happy you're back, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Titia, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Titia - glad you're safely home. It must be a sight to watch the sheepdogs working. Four hundred sheep, a lot it is...

Welcome back Titia!
Yes...you were missed...
But, oh how I love Heather
and do wish you would have had your camera there.
Your words painted us a beautiful picture though.

Tita hi there this is exceedingly good writing, you always write the scene so well it plays clearly on my mind, and this is so beautiful so incredibly well painted I loved it as mum would say I love it ‘utterly’ beautiful writing as always

Love and warm stuff
As always
