My World Tuesday: In the Garden

Saturday I spent some time planting vegetables in my parents' garden. Dad had tilled the earth, so it was a small matter of raking it out, drilling some holes, and wishing the seedlings well in their new home at the back of the house. Easy work, this, but the sun left me blissfully warm and tired at the end of it. When I finished, I found my daughter walking around the flower beds with her dog and her little Canon taking photos of the flowers that seem to do just fine without our help, thank you very much. So I followed here and took these among others. I love flowers. They remind me that art is every bit as important as math, that we must breathe no matter what else we do.

  7. I love flowers too, even in my little desert garden -- garden of the step child with the withered brown thumb who forgets that water is good, and sometimes pulls the weeds.

  19. Breathing in the beauty is one of the great pleasures of living.

    Your daisies are bloomed! Mine are not yet. But the lilies are gorgeous right now, particularly the blue flag iris, my favorite. Peonies are showing their tight, rosy fists and two miniature roses in full bloom. I'd better stop...I could go on about my garden for way too long!
