We are now into the second week of December Squares, hosted by the lovely Becky. The photos don’t necessarily have to be of a timepiece, but are open to interpretation to reflect time in some way, or sayings such as ‘the passing of time’, ‘a stitch in time’, or time running away from you.
Day Nine: “As time goes by”
At the back of my house in Ludlow was a strip of land used as an allotment during the first couple of years I lived there. Neat rows of beans and cabbages and peas. A little potting shed used by the old chap who looked after the ground. I often used to see him sitting in the doorway on an upturned bucket.
The pub to which the land belonged was closed in September 2013. A year later in September 2014 nature was beginning to take over. Rosebay Willowherb which is always one of the first plants to colonise a barren area, has made an appearance and the ivy is now spilling out over the shed roof.
By June 2015 the shed has practically disappeared. Centranthus rubra is colonising the ground in all shades of red, white and pink. Nature is reclaiming her own.
To join in with the Squares challenge please visit Becky for instructions. Remember the only proper rule is that the photo must be SQUARE.
