Anticipation and Promises
The Joy of Gardening

More snapdragons starting to bloom, Hints of pink, Anticipating these during week, Wondering and imagining vibrant colors and delicate textures as I carefully water my little garden.

Enjoying snapdragons some time now, Know their beauty and colorful exuberance, Each season adds memories and pictures fueling imagination for current season, Anticipating new twists and subtle variations in beauty and texture.
This year intended to devote whole garden to snapdragon beauty, Partially undone as usual by vanilla vine’s flowering profusion, Re-arranged pots to enable hand-pollination, Mixed up seeds, Amongst all this confusion overplanted three large pots of assorted snapdragons.
Despite my silliness snapdragons glorious, Intense colors from intense lighting, With each flower joy of anticipating next flowers. Love glorious promises of budding flowers.

Large snapdragons, Standing tall, Close to lights intense haloes, Yellows and carmine pinks, Apricots and delicate whites, Just feeds my anticipation and appreciation of Gaia’s gifts.

Reflection.
Anxiety and stress reduction popular medium articles, See doctors change diets supplements help relaxants and meditations, List goes on and on.
Cannot gainsay any article but, Years ago made a rule, Each day sought something beautiful, Sometimes solitary tree, Flowers in my son’s garden, Meditating upon Gaia’s forest beauty, Each time, cleansed mind decreased anxiety and helped coping with life’s problems, Natural human healing.
Two decades on, Have garden and vanilla vine, Walk each day in Gaia’s forest down the street, Know forest’s paths love great trees wild-flowers magpies and kookaburras, Simple beauty nature’s beauty sets me free, Blessed be.
