Even if something is left undone,

everyone must take time to sit still

and watch the leaves turn.

In my neighborhood

Just before the death of flowers,

And before they are buried in snow,

There comes a festival season

When nature is all aglow.

~Author Unknown

We have a little garden,

A garden of our own

And every day we water there

The seeds that we have sown.

*

We love our little garden,

And tend it with such care,

You will not find a faded leaf

Or blighted blossom there.

~Beatrix Potter
