So Busy

I have pinched, pruned, planted, fertilized and even mowed... I have dug, dressed, divided, harvested and hoed. Then I thinned, trimmed, transplanted, sprayed, sowed and staked... Then I wheeled, watered, weeded, rototilled and raked. I loosened, limed and layered, that's me; gardening by the book... But there was one thing I neglected, I was so busy I forgot to look. My flowers were as beautiful as could be... And I was so busy I didn't see. TK<><
