The house has a chill to it. Spring has turned cold again reminding me that nature is forever changing and shifting and moving forward. Spring reminds me that we need to be present in the now and not take for granted that because something has been labeled one way it will act in a certain way.
Not seasons, not people. We are all forever changing and shifting and growing. Perhaps meeting ourselves (and those around us) new each time might open the door for magic.
I was inspired today to write a poem. I pulled out my little planner that is more journal than planner and jotted down a few small words. It was clear that this little poem of mine was perfect for my Little Book of Words so I jotted it down-my first entry. I would love to share it with you.
“As the Garden Grows…”
As the garden grows
some plants wither some plants bloom
some birds arrive some fly away
sun shines
rain falls
snow blankets the earth
all as
the garden grows.
What is in your little book of words? Please feel free to share below.
Until next time…

Lovely poem. My mom is a poet. Did you know April is National Poetry Month?
Thank you Laura and thank you for the reminder about National Poetry Month! I had known that but completely forgot. It’s lovely that your mom was a poet, I wonder if you have any of her poems? My mother was not a poet or write but for my 8th grade graduation she wrote me a poem and created a frame for it-such a treasure to have 🙂
