a poem for my gardner wife...

You are flowers
They sing when they hear your voice
They can feel your spirit join theirs
It is a watering can for me
It is a offering of love from you
It is a cutter for me
It is painless surgery for you
They hear your voice and smiles fill their hearts
I walk past and they wince
You walk past and they smile and sigh
I see them raise their arms to you and you hug them
I see them struggle and you care for them
Your love for them exudes from your soul
You are flowers…

My husband is this way with the garden..this could have been written for him. I think it takes a special spirit to commune with nature in such a way. Wonderful tribute to your gardener wife!

Oh Paul, this is just beautiful. I know your wife will be thrilled when she reads it. My hubby loves to be in our garden and enjoys the beauty of nature, but poor love doesn't know a dandelion from a rose. ;-) Hugs, Marti

well done. . . shows that the "language of flowers" is one that only a select few can speak. . .
