Here, even in winter, the ground gives warmth and strength. There, even in August, the cold cuts through.
Our land shelters; theirs rejects.
The earth beyond the line carries fear - thick, heavy, and constant.
Those who return know it. You can feel the difference through your boots. You come back wanting to wash it off. Every grain of it.
Because our land protects. Theirs does not.

Floral surprises are some of the best surprises.

Her pal isn't eating either so that leaves me to be the only one with an appetite. Not ideal on a day I baked all afternoon.
She will just stay close and comfort him.
