The big squeeze

The weather forecast promised rain over the next few days and, although the grass at Gran and Grandpa's was a little damp, Daddy decided he'd need to try cutting it today. I thought it might help if I squeezed some of the dampness out of the grass using the roller. The thing is ... it being heavier than me ... I could hardly move it. I think I need a new plan!


"Confide ye aye in Providence, for Providence is kind,
And hear ye a' life's changes wi' a calm and tranquil mind.
Tho' press'd and hemm'd on every side, hae fath an ye'll win through,
For ilka blade o' grass keps its ain drap o' dew."

(James Ballantine - from Ilka Blade o' Grass Keps its ain Drap o' Dew)
