Dockleaf and nettle
bane and balm, riverside sprung
nestled together
Walked to the train station via the moors yesterday, that was a mistake, got mud all over my jeans and was skidding everywhere. What was nice though is that the edges of the River Flit are now completely green with nettles and (and what I think are!) dock leaves. It’s funny how the old remedy for being stung by a nettle usually grows close by.
The rain has helped the flora make busy with growth.
I took a photo of a particularly green clump. I take no responsibility as to my accuracy, there may not be any dockleaf in this photo, in fact there may not be any nettles either! If so, here is a photo of some green planty shit…
