Today for the Quadrille over at dVerse Poets. De has given us the word “cobble”. Note about cobblestones. As a retired engineer, I amass all sorts of useless information. Most of the “cobblestones” after the 1860’s are actually limestone setts cut into the shape of a brickbat and set into place on sand. Cobbles are round flat stones brought here millenia ago by the glaciers. They are no primarily used to construct buildings.
Peach Cobbler
Making peach cobbler
with icecream on the side
always reminds me of my long dead
Father – the ripe peaches, the spices.
Hello Papa I say to it
when I pull it from the oven.
Such a sunny fruit cobbler always
makes my eyes rain.
