The blackberries be coming. Thorny brambles being fruity. In shades and tones of ruby red, gooseberry green and mauve, shiny in late summer sun. In spite of a little the summer sun, a sure fire sign that summer's done. An odd day dons a beach umbrella, a sun hat and a deck chair. The coming in of autumn slowly, Provocative of cardigans and rain hats. Here we go, All fall down. Anyone fancy a crumble or pie. Spite the end of summer days. Smack autumn in the eye. There be bonus upon the yield be given from the hedgehog bush. (c)LIVVI
