Every Garden has a Soul
A Light Within
The Garden is like a Universal Spirit
Carrying a Prayer of Creation
The Garden is a Gatekeeper
of each Season's Light
of each Season's Light
The Garden is a Diviner of Secrets,
A Shape-shifter of Time and Space
The Garden is a Poet
of vines and greenery,
A Voice scented with the sweetness of Prose
of vines and greenery,
A Voice scented with the sweetness of Prose
The Garden is Love
and it is the Heart-space of Dreams
and it is the Heart-space of Dreams
The Garden is a Healer,
transitioning old wounds
and making them into
something beautiful and new
transitioning old wounds
and making them into
something beautiful and new
The Garden hears
every Star and every Moon
every Star and every Moon
Believes in the Sun
and prays for Rain
and prays for Rain
The Garden is a Spirit dancing through time..
Leaving a gift of clues, messages and signs
for even in the death of Autumn
and the stillness of Snow..
it's Heart beats.. full of life..
Creating quiet miracles
Nature's Spirit will follow
The Garden is an Ancient Soul
Igniting it's Spark upon the Earth
The Garden
is breath
is light
is the Creative Essence
that ignites Life in you and I
and changes us forevermore...
Every Garden has a pulse
Every Garden has a Soul
Every Garden is Awake and Alive
...Infinite and Whole.

...Infinite and Whole.

Does a garden bring you to life;
or do you bring your garden to life?
or do you bring your garden to life?
is it both?
If you are the Heart of the garden ..perhaps the Garden is the soul..

Thankyou for your wonderful compliments! I always photograph my garden on cloudy days or low light times, or early evening when the light is not so bright,the flowers always show up better..and plus I experiment with the different settings on my camera.You can also adjust the contrast on a picture to make it pop.I really just experiment! Fun!
Kiki you have a very interesting and unique way of seeing and describing things. Things you are writing about, I would probably never notice, but when I read them here, I wonder how didnt I notice that...
Beautiful picture of a bird in a lake.
