Deep green deep


The university campus is outside the city, fringed by countryside, steaming softly in the humid heat. Yesterday I took the wooded path around the small lake. A whispery, deep-green place with only a few fishermen for company. 


In the parched scrub beyond the woods, mullein plants flourish: the soothing herb.

Hope the all the green things soothe, and that you're OK.
