We do not remember days...

We remember moments.

(Cesare Pavese)

********

"An hour in the garden puts life's problems into perspective."

Some say I am confined to wheelchairBut I don’t think they know

That though my body is affected I still am on the go.

I go to visit those I love

And walk to market place;

I tread the woods until it rains

And then the rainbow trace.

Of course my body cannot always go

For it’s been restricted for days,

But who would say paralysis confines

A soul and mind that dreams and prays?

Although my body sometimes lets me down

Through days of darkest night,

My spirit soars on wings of prayer

And moves with speed of light.

In dreams and prayer I visit those I love;

Great is the gift of prayer;

And when my thoughts are beamed toward you

You’ll sense my presence there.

It has been raining (huricane type rain) since the early hours of morning. Rather gloomy!
I took a few pictures from the porch. A Humming bird visited our feeder while I was there.

I'm always amazed to see plants, like the Mother-in-law tongue, that I have always considered just green leaves bloom. Moving from Arkansas to Alabama has been a learning experience for sure. Enjoy seeing and reading about your plants.
