Daddy introduced me to the poet Edgar Guest a few years ago. Here is part of his poem, Plant a Garden.
If it’s drama that you sigh for,
plant a garden and you’ll get it
You will know the thrill of battle
fighting foes that will beset it
If you long for entertainment and
for pageantry most glowing,
Plant a garden and this summer spend
your time with green things growing.
Our garden is much to wet to do anything yet. But the spring flowers are beautiful and it is time to start planning our garden!
