Longing for the flowers that adorn my garden patch
I open wide the door that I imagine sits unlatched
Inside this magic land of mine, I'm longing to explore
every dainty blossom bud arranged with sweet adore
Une belle Epoque,"a period of high artistic view"
each boutonnieres is a whisper of, " and how are you ?"
Abiding in the charms of my annual florets,
I sit and take to wonder, how it is that we first met
It was Maytime and the sun was oh ! bran new
yes we were enamored and we stuck like crazy glue
Two petals sharing one flower, we clung like poetry
leaning on each other sharing secrets, drinking tea
Oh but that was long ago, when love was all we knew
two flowers growing wild aside some gentle feverfews
Steadfast as the sun and moon we were back then
as I sit here in my garden for the life of me,
I cannot remember, when ?
WELL...I THINK THE MIND REJECTS THE MEMORY OF THE YEARS BECAUSE, YOU KNOW... IT'S BEEN SOOOO LONG AGO. BUT THE HEART, FULL OF THAT WONDERFUL SPIRIT THAT NEVER GROWS OLD, WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER...SPRINGTIME AND LOVE!
THANK YOU, MYSTIC! LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS
So mournful I almost cried. You show a great longing for the way it used to be when love was new and the flowers, too. We cannot reclaim those days, only look forward.
Each morning this year, I'm very encouraged because I have asked my partner not to destroy the phlox growing in her bed of rare Vietnamese mint that no one else seems to be able to grow and she is very fond of… Able to harvest its green leaves for salads and tasty meat wrappings about 3 times a summer, only having to water occasionally.
But I told her that the phlox only bloomed when the sun hit it in the morning and didn't hurt the growth of the mint that when it grew tall, shaded out the phlox until the coming spring when the phlox replanted itself from seeds.
This year, she didn't touch it, and I am greeted with a beautiful violet colored display every morning to cheer me while I get my sun, like the phlox during that brief period when it shines directly down between the garage and the house every day.
