As I drove into Cranbrook to meet Sarah for an americano and half a bacon roll I pondered on how to fulfil today's prompt from Amy. Patience!!! Tough one. Then it came to me. I planted a tree peony in the garden and had to wait 'patiently' for years before it flowered. Now I wait for over 11 months of the year for it to burst into bloom for probably a couple of weeks at the most. I never thought of myself as patient or not. Now I think I am.
To those who commented on the Morris fertility cake I will enlighten you....I have no idea apart that for the last 36 May Days the Weald of Kent Morris have danced a fruit cake has been speared on a sword and shared with the adoring audience. The getting up at 5.31am on May Day to dance and sing marks the beginning of summer and the fertility.
