Friday Fence


“Build a little fence of trust around today; Fill the space with loving deeds, And therein stay. Look not through the sheltering bars Upon tomorrow; God will help thee bear what comes of joy and sorrow.”
 Mary F. Butts quote


the path below is in Rye Wilderness Park, about 10 miles from our home. The fence was along side the path.

Sandra, I truly enjoyed the quote from Mary F. Butts. I would love to walk that path right now. Very nice post.

I love these curvy path edges, and that reddish looking part dead bush on the other side. And I never knew there was more to that poem, I didn't know that part!

That path sure is inviting. Does the fence keep out alligators hee hee.

Fences to keep things in, fences to keep things out. What would we do without fences. Great shots, and have a super weekend!!

Look at all that vegetation, you truly live in a different world from mine. I love fences, they can be so special, and with that quote, even more so.

Ms. Sandra my mom says she'd love to take a leisurely walk on that path with Mad Snapper. No telling what trouble you two could get into snapping like turtles.
Hugs madi

I really like that quote, as well as your photos of the fence. I have some not-so-happy memories of building (and repairing) barbed-wire fences when I was growing up on a farm.

Cranberry Morning said...

Oh, I would love to walk that path! (but only in daylight. I think that once dusk comes, it would feel pretty spooky!) :-)

Lovely quotation.

Chatty Crone said...

Your verse/quote today reminds me of the Bible verse about building a hedge of thorns around someone for protection.

SquirrelQueen said...

I really like that rustic looking fence. It fits in well with the area. That is the kind of path I love to follow.
