It's a miracle what the earth gives,
From water, sun and seed,
The beauty of flowers that paint our world,
And food that fills our needs.

I haven't that touch for growing,
But love watching the garden grow,
Seeing seeds turn into plants,
The miracle of life from soil.

I do my gardening late at night,
Fill my baskets with fruit from labor.
Besides it is the safest time,
(Cuz the garden is my neighbor's)

Did you get enough to share? LOL If not... are you busy tonight? LOL Can you have the groceries picked by the time I get there? LOL

I love this!! My Dad always planted so much he was begging people to harvest the excess... wish you'd lived closer! LOL
