In The Garden

Gray C

In The Garden 

 

The ground can be very hard, especially if the winter has been long and hard. 

When the spring rain begins to fall the surface softens, becoming receptive to new shoots which begin to appear as the sun warms the earth. 

As the flowers begin to bloom, the whole garden takes on a new, fresh beauty. 

All the dullness of the winter gone,

beautiful colours everywhere. 

Reawakened, the garden is alive once more, how long will it last?

Slowly at first, the colours begin to fade, the petals start to fall, the warm summer sun becomes the autumn chill. 

Before you know it the winter has arrived again.
