In The Blooming ~*Marge Tindal*~ ![]() Garden to bloom in the wealth of the spring Gifting of glorious flowers to bring Falling away in this winter of need Culling from blossoms, the brown fertile seed Retreat to the plot, in corner to plant Tilling and turning, beginning to pant Dripping with moisture from brow of content Sunlight has ended, the day dearly spent Morning arousal brings sight to sore eyes Tiny green shoots of variety rise Hoe, Hoe, Hoeing - stay ahead of the need to spray such poisonous stuff on a weed Resplendent bouquet resides crystal-vased I, in content, with sweet fragrance am faced ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

"Ain't it the truth?" I worked 8 hours now four day in a row, and under my breath I do curse a little, but next month I shall be all smiles when those happy faces greet me in the garden and on my mantle. This was perfecto mongo but I don't expect anything less now! ~*~ I write ~ Therefore I am ~*~ |

Dear Marge: I could almost picture you working in your garden. You live in a wonderful area for growing flowers or anything, especially poetic thoughts! Betty Lou Hebert |

I love this, Marge!!! *S* I'm too far away to do much but visit and help harvest now, but I used to help my Dad plant his garden... and he always acted surprised when zinnias and marigolds popped up in the midst of his peas and squash. LOL I was unrepentant... the soul needs food, too! *S* |

SuthernGal~ Awwww ! What an adorable memory ! On the border of my veggie garden - the very Zinnias of which you speak. I also do a real good row of Speckled Butter Beans, Crowder Peas and Big Boy Tomatoes ! Yummy ! Wish you were here to share. ![]() SueTang~ Yes ... I also thought of your lovely verses of your garden as I penned this. So pleased you enjoyed it. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
