Hope Optimism and Love

Marigolds are supposed to reseed themselves And so they do, as do roses and other perennials Weeds of course are notorious for reseeding themselves I have renegade trees all over my yard too, with red berries. No idea what they are called. Mums go to seed, and I never know if they will come back or not. Some have come back, others have never come back. Some people rake away the chaff from autumn I never do, optimistic that some of my plants will reseed themselves I am the only person I know who sometimes sees annuals come up the next year I attribute this to hope, optimism, and love.
