The warm aromas greet you at the door
Caramelising flesh sweetness of fresh greens
Drop your bags and take a seat ringside
Ephervesant sparkles hit your glass
Introductory and catch up conversation
Smiles and questions
Gossip
Platter brimming
Anticipation building
Each portion seved
Toasts made
Then we dine
Conversation flows smoothly as wine
Here's the challenge - compose a poem each day for one year, that reflects my agrarian life. On our hobby farm on the edge of the Monaro my husband Matthew and I raise children (I have eight, though only five remain at home), sheep, goats, chooks, piglets, a milking cow and her calf, fruit and vegies. To support this enterprise I teach in the remotest school in Victoria - if anywhere in Victoria is truly remote.
