when seedlings from the nursery
are chosen in variety
timing is key
we wait for spring all winter through
when plants make plans to grow anew
and hope does too
but when to plant is quite an art
this year our spring was late to start
and all lost heart
some plants were killed off by the frost
through savage winds more blooms were lost
we count the cost
Hello Lesly! My name is Raul, and I used to enjoy reading your poems on Hellopoetry. I wanted to let you know I still very much appreciate your poems and your art is also absolutely lovely! You shared your blog with me some time ago and so I try to visit from time to time.

Thank you, Raul. How kind of you to comment and to visit me occasionally. I am afraid I am in the doldrums with both art and poetry at the moment but your nice words are an encouragement.
