Golden Gorse

G, H and I went for a walk this morning on Kelling Heath. It was covered with golden gorse which bizarrely smelt strongly of coconut. Later I was editing my photos and a red-legged partridge walked nonchalantly by my patio window, unfortunately I didn't have my camera to hand!

Bonny Mary let us go O'er the hills of gorse and heather
Where the little harebells grow In the summers sultry weather
Where the rabbit and the hare Timid feed and hide together
Mary let us wander there O'er the hills among the heather

John Clare
