Premium Member The Bargain
Generally, I am on the Clean Side; but, garden soil is my rich exception -- I wallow in it, a piggy for the scent and feel -- Sort of like, training wheels on bicycles are for sissies, glove-less, I dip and knead; saturate and soak. Claw! Compact! Sniff the compost, deeply investing with bacteria: praising, composing a reverent hymn, How gloriously Efficient Is Nature!~ our Mother recycling, wasting nothing, reusing...

I'm standing by the mountain that reaches up so high. I'm looking toward the heavens and asking for a reason why? In the shadow of that mountain, I can't see my way through... but I'll start climbing for the summit because I know I walk with you. He'll lead me to the highest, he'll lift me and I'll...

Evermore
While wending my way one sunny day in no particular direction on stopping for reflection I took a look at flowers by the rustic fence beside a gnarled old tree and was amused to see beautiful colours and textures which it seemed to me could only be a painting picturesque packed with pinks and reds yellows too while beyond there lay a field of green beneath...

marvelling flowers
marvel at the vigorous blade of grass, resistant to the worst storms, marvel at the dandelion, offering a thousand treasures To the bees of the county, marvel at the hemlock flower, which could poison ten ancient poets, marvel at the plant world and its millions of possibilities, marvel at the fern, which does not tire that winter, marvel at how the butterfly marvels on the corolla...

Marlaina, in Bloom
In gardens where the wild winds roam, Marlaina walks, and love comes home. Each step she takes, the blossoms rise— Their colours borrowed from her eyes. She lingers where Gerber Daisies grow, With petals soft as evening’s glow. They blush in pinks and fiery gold, As if they know the hands that hold Their fragile stems are warm with fire— A gardener, yes—but so...
