Turning to toil in my secret gardens climbing roses unfold that I've so carefully pruned. A scent of blush fills the air from a fresh sprinkling climbing over an arbor leaves a mist in the morning. Clinging vines on a trellis where tender buds bloom hinting at spring petal pushers that swoom. As they dapple and dance in the shadows of sunlight renewing the spring and the beauty I love. That slips in so slowly to lie in my arms a bouquet to behold long stemming from you. |

Lori, Silly me I had you pictured in these just below the knees small hem slit pair of pants working in the garden. Well, never mind. It was almost as romantic as your poem! ![]() If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

You guys are the best, thank you so much for stopping long enough to smell the roses. I anticipate the spring with open arms, as my garden is begging to bloom again. I just hope my petal pushers will still fit! ![]() |
