Time To Linger

The heather's in bloom on the moors right now.  So it's time to dawdle.  Time to linger.  Time to wallow in the purpley-ness of it all. To gaze at the colour washing across the hills to the hazy horizon.

Time to wear plum-coloured sweaters and bilberry-hued wrist warmers and blend into the landscape.  To sit amongst the springy stems and pretend I'm modelling for a Brora catalogue.

Time to snip dainty sprigs of the ling….to tuck them into ribbon-wrapped parcels or raffia-bound jars of jam.  And send tiny fragments of the fells out into the world.
