“When I sound the fairy call, gather here in silent meeting,
Chin to knee on the orchard wall, cooled with dew and cherries eating.
Merry, merry, take a cherry, mine are sounder, mine are rounder,
Mine are sweeter for the eater, when the dews fall, and you'll be fairies all.”

Emily Dickinson. (American poet,1830-1886)
I think this is the first time, in almost 14 summers spent living here in Normandy, that our cherry crop has produced enough for us and the birds to enjoy
I'm joining in with two great meme's with this post; Mary's Mosaic Monday @ the little red house where we're celebrating red, white & blue.
I hope my cherries, nestling in their red, white & blue vintage Quimper bowl, qualify!
And, Weekly Words to Live by @ Tracey's blog, Notes From A Cottage Industry.
Hope all my US pals are enjoying the holiday weekend, have a great week tout le monde.
