Golden oats

Another snippet from In the Artist's Garden, which I'm talking about on the book blog today.

Ronald Blythe recalls a sermon in which he "described God's asking each one of us: 'My beautiful world - why didn't you enjoy it more?' "

The photograph is of stipa gigantea (golden oats) in Oxford Botanic Garden.
