From boredom gardens
A harvest of bitter grapes
Instead of flowers

Good one.

Each day that is born
Lays pasture to the morn and
For the dew of dawn

Sour wine resulting
only whine and wafered shell
should be served for now

time to digest life
and sing praise to nature's gifts
wine and rose alike~

Too true! Well done!

Have you tried Zoloft???? Kidding!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

From tended gardens
A harvest of vine-sweet grapes
Grows with the flowers.

like plants and trees
without water wither and die
without love
so will you and i
always tend your garden
give love and respect
never  reject
dont age like a fine whine
let nature take it's course
give it a chance
life could be divine
thankyou for sharing

"Whoaaaa!"  Did you hear that?  This struck like a bolt of lightening.  I love the simplicity of words to bring forth the depth.
