[hometext] => Planting our garden, made me think of many other things...I came up with this conglomeration of thoughts.
[bodytext] => Tilling the Earth Dark brown with twisted webs of weeds and grasses Once growing here Now nourishing soil  This space has been void of the usual garden fair for years... Summers now it has been like a wildflower field  White picket fence as it's perimeter laden with grape vines years old Many a fine wine brewed from these ~~I remember the crock and the stirring the stirring~~  She cried one day Long ago when she came back home to the old farm place Garden grown and not... Not as she remembered Her father, My mother worked this ground with their hands their sweat their love  Today the aroma of the dirt is simply unexplainable No other scent so perfect... Except maybe fresh mowed grass~ We take our tools Dig and mound Tenderly taking plants Roots and dirt marry Come summer late their bounty shall be reaped  As a family we plant we join one another in the Earth's sweet song Caress her Love her and she shall return to us health and vitality brought with harvest  Now we wait We water We talk We weed We blend and grow all of us together garden Earth family Through love and patience we shall all be sustained  6-14-07 Laura Horner We planted a late garden yesterday. Damon used the tiller. Joesie, Jude and I dug holes, made mounds and planted...tomatoes, squash, peppers and cucumbers. We also have a whole row of asparagus that we're slowly weeding out. It is probably been 6 years since there has been a garden here. Donnell (my little sister and the "she" mentioned in the poem) will be happy and I can't wait to share fresh vegies with her.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
