I especially like the great, rough, blobs of colour painted over.

GA, what a delightful rhyme for the first (or is it the second?) day of autumn – apple pie being one of the great delights of the season. From my observation pie making has become a lost art in these parts, with the exception of our Thanksgiving on the last Thursday of November.

My dear mother made a great apple pie, and I am happy to say that my daughter continues that tradition. The skill has eluded me – it’s all in the crust, they say, that must be handled very gingerly.

And the poet’s name, Jemmy Catnach, sounds as if it comes right out of Dickens – a “catchy” name for the writer of children’s books.
