Gardeners working
hand in hand with God,
can produce a bit of Eden
and its glory.
******************

Gardeners are cultivators
of gardens and of friends as well.
They're proud to grow and proud to show
and will their garden secrets tell.
If she is wise and well informed
on Latin nomenclature
she'll identify your plant for you
with knowledge and good nature.

A true gardner takes delight
in simple things like birds in flight.
She watches them as on the wing
they usher in the fall or spring.
She raises flowers for all to view
and shares her abundant produce too
with everyone who comes to call
and with small creatures most of all.

Good poem Joyce and suits you to a T! Speaking of small creatures, how is the little cat and does it have a permanent name yet?

Love

I loved this so much, it reminded me of my grandmother who I think of often, and is no longer here with us but I thought of her huge garden she had in her yard it was so beautiful and she put so much time and love into it, and my grandfather built a bird house in the yard and they had a bird bath in the center. Thanks for bringing me back there!
