Noticing

2026-06-14 10:00

Cows following farmer across paddock, bull in adjacent paddock having a belch

Chip packet, now in pocket, never to be noticed again

Morning mist rising off the fast flowing river

A parted path of fallen leaves on the understory of deciduous woods

Naked poplars

Drops of dew on the lowpoints of branches, spider webs and 12-gauge farm fencing

Coffee cup caught in bracken from when the river was high, no longer

Smooth exposed grey sand from the lowering river

Birds chirping above in the naked willows

Fingers starting to get cold

Fellow walking dogs, 'mornin, one off lead, bounces happily over for a wet-nose touch of my hand, hey pup

Frozen tops of fence posts

Pamphlet, another pamphlet, a coffee cup lid, no longer

Frost covered cars

Hunger
