I agree about the wonderful metaphor, however Chris, I must admit, when I read the title at least 2 thoughts came to my mind and each on had nothing to do with gardens and flowers (lol). Enjoyed! And yes, I can relate, my rose bushes are ready to bloom. "You sleep in the night yet the night and the silent water still so dark." |

You know Chris! If things had wored out the way they were suppose to, here, I would have had my beautiful garden by now. But, I am happy that you have yours. |
