Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

As I walk into my memory garden
I stop and view each tiny plot
A picture has been planted there
To remind me of what I’ve got
When the world seems to be crashing down
I go to this secret garden place
And stroll through the garden rows
A smile is planted on my face
This life is only what we make it
We are simply the seeds we sow
I see this all in my memory garden
As I watch my memory seedlings grow.

Aziza, I know exactly of what you speak!  I grew up on a beautiful rolling hills farm in the midwest.  Hopoefully, I'm going to get to visit there in a couple of weeks and fill myself with some wonderful new memories, too.  Much enjoyed!  *hugs*....jo

My response to you in the other thread inspired this poem.  I offer it to you as you seek more memories in the places you love.

Thank you for reading, caring, and responding.

Hugs.
