Blackberries

I went for a walk this evening as the sun was setting in the west. I didn't get a chance to walk today and I wanted to get in a few minutes before dark. When I got down behind the barn, I found several patches of blackberries. I thought they had already died down for this year, but an amber ray of sun highlighted some berries as big as my thumb just off the path.
I had on shorts and a T-shirt, but I figured I could score enough berries for a pie. I hustled back to the barn and grabbed a quart jar and headed back down the path. My legs and arms look as if I've been in a cat fight, but I've got berries and Saturday, I'll be enjoying a scrumptious blackberry cobbler. A little heaven in a dish.
