Wonder in the Hours

HEAD DOODLING BACK


There is  nothing
that can make
one's heart sing
more  tenderly  than
the wonder in the hours
spent nurturing a garden
where a child watches
his  planted  seeds,
slowly – turn  to  flowers.

    so many lessons for a child to learn in the garden..patience...the cycle of life...nourishing something to see it grow....working in the garden is a spiritual experience anyway...so much to putting your hand to creation....
