Listen to the Gardens!

I do this sometimes. I just stop and appreciate. It’s been a mind/body spinning first half of the year. I’ve barely had time to see inside myself, let alone time to process the world. I have so many thoughts bouncing in my head, begging to be put down in print before I forget them. We’ll see what happens with that.

There is also the here and now. I walk and/ or ride a bicycle through the neighborhood between about 5:00 and 6:30 every morning. That solitary time in the near empty streets matters to me. I listen to the silence and to the beauty of the gardens at dawn.

I live in a small town with mixed architectural homes. Almost all the yards have flowers at this time of year and I can’t take my eyes off the jewels that adorn the streets. Feel free to enjoy a handful with me.

The first sunflower spotted yesterday!
