and all the faded roses shed


Today I turned to some garden work, and found that the Edenic garden was full of blighted rose leaves and wilting stems.  I tried to tidy, and dead-head, and water, but I fear that the plant beds have been lacking in actual care this year.  Blackberries are flourishing, however (we've had homegrown stewed blackberry and apple almost every night that I've been back), and taste infinitely better than the cultivated things that are sold under the name of blackberries in US supermarkets.
