100 words: Dew

She woke up early and went to the kitchen, put the kettle on for the coffee and looked out of the window. She had one of her favourite scenes in front of her eyes. Morning dew on a field behind the house. 

She smiled and remembered how she spent every summer at her grandparents farm as a child. She loved waking up early and walking barefoot through the high wet grass around the house and watching the sun rise.

She took the kettle off the stove and ran out barefoot. The grass was soft and wet just as she remembered.

  2. As a small child I used to love running around barefoot in the dewy grass. Until one day I cut my foot quire badly and I was banned thereafter!! Diane

  3. I too have my memories of being at Grandma's house as a kid. The morning dew, listening to the birds, laying in the hammock...Thanks for bringing that up today.

  4. Fabulous. I can absolutely relate as redoing my kitchen has meant replacing a dingy old window giving me a lovely view of my back garden. I spend more time out there now than I should.

  12. Thank you all for your lovely comments. I'm really glad that you all liked my latest (which is quite old by now) post.
    I'm sorry I've been away lately, I'm very busy with my studies. I'll try to write something new today, but can't promise anything since I'm really very very busy.
    Thank you all again. It's nice to have so supportive readers and friends.
