Nature Never Did Betray


'Nature never did betray the heart that loved her'  

This line was tweeted and I loved it.  It is from William Wordsworth poem 'Lines Composed a Few Miles above Tintern Abbey'  It is a lovely poem, what he says I am sure so many of us who love nature can identify with some of the lines in it.  I have posted the link to this poem, if you want to read it you may have to copy and paste the link:

Those Rare Sunny Days


Hi everyone, have not been blogging for a while but hopefully that will change,  I would like to change my blog a little to include other things, ie my garden.  I am not quite sure whether to keep my title 'Far From the Madding Crowd' or change it, but I struggle to think of another.   

We went for a walk at Arne on one of those rare sunny days last Friday and today we went to Durlston Country Park.  I hope these dull, wet and windy days are now going to be fewer.  These pictures on this post were taken at Arne.
