Two Takes on the Peace Garden

The Peace Garden is a very small green enclosure in my village, planted with trees and accomodating a memorial to the fallen of two world wars.
Here are two loosely interpreted cameos in which I have tried to describe the differing seasonal attributes of an old stone-wall boundary within the garden. The first is an autumnal impression, the second, a high summer afternoon.
