soon.....

my garden last spring


this winter weary season will quietly come back to life~
in indigo,cerise and lime..
with soft warm air, meadowlarks and frog-song lullabies...
armloads of long stemmed purple doubled lilacs..

I'm digging in the garden today.
Moving old brick, neatening edges...sorrowing a lost rose...
glad at so many volunteer columbine under the leaf mulch,
pale green yellow of the poplar grove trees...
soon..

I hope that the sun is shining on you wherever you might be today.

Greeting dear friend....the nice weather is calling us, isn't it! I am longing to work in my garden, but it I have been too busy! it has warmed up in Troutdale. Jim was over near Maupin fly fishing today...fishing wasn't good but he was glad to get outside.
Wishing you and yours a very Happy Easter!
Lydia Rose sends her love,
Linda
