The Luxury of a Garden

Garden’s luxury of pinkest foxglove,
Nurtured by angels from way up above,
Along with petunias and marigolds,
Honors the true path of the very old.

Joyful delight oozing from every pore,
Fairy brownie heart completely did soar.
Sweet deer in the meadow came up to see,
Owls and robins were looking from their tree.

Twilight breezed in on tiny birdlike wings.
Macaw and crow were given shiny things.
My poet’s heart was cheering in my dream.
Gentle brook trickled into every stream.

A prettier scene will never be found.
Joyfulness and love oozing all around.

Caren, your description sounds like the gardens I used to have before a pregnant doe (and later her twins) devoured everything edible! Would have preferred to starve than shoot her, of course. End of my gardening! I love mushrooms in all kinds of dishes but I'm not expert enough to pick the wild ones. No mushroom is worth dying for. Glad you enjoyed the omelete poem. / M
