Wow! Indeed, here in the Northeast of the US, we just received some much needed drain. The mood over here has been a prolonged drought and wildfires! The Delaware River looks like a babbling brook, even with the rain we just got. 😬 Indeed, nature is tempermental! So, if you get sick of the rain and can find a way, we’ll take some! 🤪 That aside, what a wonderful poem, my friend! ❤️

Some memories are tied in with the season and the seeming fickleness of weather. Thoroughly enjoyed Cassie!

Oh wow! What a lovely poem. I often wonder how good photographers can click stunning pictures of perfectly everday scenes. Perhaps this poem is an example of such occurance. I read the line \'as trouser belt gave way\' again and again - just fantastic!

I have sessions of baking, I have been baking my own bread and rolls for many, many years.
The biggest problem Cassie is when I make biscuits as every time I pass the biscuit barrel I have to have another one to see if they are still alright to eat. LOL

I have often wondered about the kitchen chaos and why every pan bowl needs to be dirty. When I cook, I clean each as I go so that there is no mess at the end, but then to each their own.

That makes me want to be invited over! No one really bakes anymore and store bought goodies are too sweet, ‘too preserved,’ and too expensive…. Enjoy the relish goodies and the family camaraderie!

It certainly was a hard life back then Cassie. When I was in senior school I used to work on Saturdays and my holidays in Victor Values, a supermarket back in the day, it was hard work but the staff and camaraderie was wonderful.

I found the poem to be visceral...crossed the bounds of cerebral and hit something beyond it. The line \"the photographer
harvests hardship in monochrome \" ... magical

It bought back learned images of boys up chimneys and the matchstick girls... glad we are more socially conscious today....now we just deny them proper shelter....
Good call, Cassie

I could only imagine though on one tropical holiday I was like Rambo by the Oceanside, sitting in the rocky beach hunting knife in hand shucking oysters and straight into the gullet, lunch al fresco. Got a few cuts as well, they are quite sharp, the shells and the rocks. So I can imagine a life of nothing but shucking could be quite shocking. I can feel the sharp stinging rawness of the cuts now… courtesy of part-hypochondriac and interactive memory. Solid poem here Cassie, a journey no less! 👍🏻👍🏻

My mother was one of five children. The family were fishermen and oyster farmers. Everyone works from the age of six. Not sure what a six year old does but they were trained well.
My mother bought seven properties with an oyster knife.
Tough life? Possibly but that\'s what they knew.

There is no developed country where children are allowed to work, but this is a valuable picture that tells us that it was the same everywhere more than 100 years ago.
Even today, some developing countries still rely on child labor.
I think it is a very good poem. The choice of words also conveys to the reader in a straightforward manner.

You know when I was 15 I worked in a fishmongers in Granville arcade in Brixton London, my hands were so ugly full of cuts from fish spines and black with the wrapping of the paper we used I used to clean fillet and wrap, even though my hands were terribly ugly I absolutely loved my job. I feel for those young souls who had such a job so young. 🌹
