Walking this past week took me only to my own garden.
Searching high and low for beauty and delight right there.
Moments grasped as I took time away from playing nurse
and made sure the garden was not neglected.
So thankful for a sprinkling of rain on Saturday,
the garden was thankful too.
As you can see some weeds reside there,
but beauty still appears amongst the thorns.
It is those little things that somedays we must
search and find to delight the way and make our hearts sing.
"And this is certain; if so be
You could just now my garden see,
The aspic of my flowers so bright
Would make you shudder with delight."
~Edward Lear (1812-1888)
