I love this because I can totally relate to it, Peter. I do not wish in any way to boast but, when I was young, my father set aside two acres in which he said I could plant trees. The trees have grown and the wood is so beautiful now. However, because of development, it is on the brink of obliteration. Thank you for sharing this gift of yours. Love and peace to you,

Regis

A most rewarding read, Peter. Thanks. Nature and God seem to be interchangable concepts, don't you think?

This says so much and I think most people who garden feel this same reaction with every burst of green in the spring. Well done Peter.

I hadn't thought about "the very DNA of God", but so very true, Peter.

It is so exhilarating to plant a cutting or seed, then watch it grow into a marvelous, healthy plant...or tree!

Excellent verse.

Now my dementia is at work for I recall a saying by someone (whom I cannot remember) who lived in Shakespeare's time that the first thing God made was a garden. Lovely poem. Victor

Peter ...

I am in harmony and agreement with you in this multi-hued write.

Truly, my intrepid friend, Gods creation is marvelous beyond words, and always enamors those with the attuned senses to "see and feel and smell and hear" with its shear complexity and astounding beauty.

You have grounded me today with this write. Thankyou! Too many have been trying to steal too much from me here at work.

Light and Harmony ...
