When working in the garden
I look for little things which
Cause enthusiasm in my soul.
I am brought to delight and
Knowing that I am not alone,
I watch for bees and other
Insects as they do what they
Do in the garden. Pollination
Is up to them unless the wind
Is strongly blowing. Then the
Insects take cover and I find
Myself alone thinning plants
And pulling weeds it may
Sound dull but with the right
Attitude is exciting and peaceful
Soon the garden turns into a
Gem. Many colors come together
Forming a palette of color which
Would make most artists wonder.
My idea is not to make a masterpiece
But just a balanced presentation
Which will make the angels smile.
Seasons pass and changes do also.
What was once, is no longer. It is
Similar and what is given to be
Worked over and brought to fruition.
Joy abounds.
