Optimistic old nails

I walked down to the Imġiebaħ bay today. Imġiebaħ is known as a secluded and somewhat hard to reach bay. But very few of us know that Imġiebaħ means beehives. In fact I knew there were ancient beehives cut into the rocks but I did not find their whereabouts today until I looked at a panorama I took and spotted the place when I enlarged the image. So I went down to the beach looking for the beehives but ended up shooting other things as I walked along. Here's the first find.

4 old nails met on a wooden block. One said to the others,
" How is your rust doing?"
"It's improving daily," answered one.
" How's your back," asked another.
"Cannot straighten up anymore. But I'm not complaining even if I'm stuck here. I love the sun, rain and fresh open air."
"Better than being banged on the head isn't it!
Hey look smart, smile and don't move we are being photographed."
Great little narrative. They certainly are rusty.

Nice textures. And always nice to read the local stories and history.
