Truly an old end and a new beginning :-)
A ram of a self-shearing breed on our farm,
last summer, halfway through the shedding process.
self-shearing sheep
summer’s moonspun dreams,
soon ended.
fleece even to the end
new growth replaces old
floating garment
|
blackbird turns over
each and every unraked leaf
laboriously
but not in vain
fresh growth beneath spent life
promise and hope |

Perfect picture :)
A beautiful look at the old and the new.
Glad you shared the 12 days of Christmas...
Oh I like that half-way ewe
I didn't know about self shearing sheep.
Best Wishes for the coming year
A shaggy bottom:)- Never heard of this before.
