“He’s alive!”
Yesterday I found a dead calf. The cow was there, standing – still licking the little body, still trying to coax it to life. I hate this, every time - death and pain and sorrow – even knowing as I do that death is part of this business, and part of life. Confused and worried, the cow snorted and shook her head at me. I didn’t know what had gone wrong, but I knew we had an extra calf at the barn, a twin – against the odds in cattle. With my rope, I drug the dead calf behind my horse and the cow followed, anxious beyond fear. “He’s alive!” she bawled. “He’s moving!” With skill, experience and also some drugs, we swapped a live calf for the dead one - a happy ending. - Mary Flitner, Diamond Tail Ranch

Good day…
spent most of the day at the barn, rode a few hosses, checked calves, and just enjoyed the beautiful day!

your lips, beloved, are like a honeycomb: honey and milk are under the tongue. and the smell of your clothes is like the smell of my home.
John Berger
Brings to mind the Merle Haggard song, Carolyn:
“Their warm lips, like a honeycomb, drip with honey
and something about the smell of strange perfume…”(via workman)
