REALITY?: Garden Plots

Cultivate a happiness that comes from knowing others. Walk the garden paths seeking all varieties and save the seeds to plant those that are perennial and hardy stock. Take joy in vibrant blooms and save the memory. Stroke the softness of the new green leaves. Have patience with the winter’s withered times. Pull the weeds that choke new growth, and don’t feel anger or remorse; weeds propagate with help from those averse to beauty and will survive. Encourage all late bloomers, salute the heavy oak, and always, when you can do it, stop and watch for bonus butterflies.
