The Summer Garden

.

Love is like a summer garden
In fragrant full colorful bloom
Blooms that wait for the seed harvest
Love's harvest equals more love soon

The fragant garden draws bees, birds
To feast on the pollen, seeds, bugs
Love draws all to feast on joy, peace
Patience, kindness, gentleness..more

Let this summer be your greatest
Largest harvest of love to enjoy
Reap benefits this quality
Bestows _ watch your love surely grow

What an uplifting write on love, Sara! Enjoyed reading your Quatrain this afternoon and thank you for your comment on "Night Flight". Many readers only know Exupéry's 'The Little Prince' but I do also love his other novels!...All the best...Gert
