My Competing Hobbies

by Sugarray77

What's kept me from the poetry
that courses through my veins?
What steers my thoughts both day and night
and never seems to wane?

This urge that guides my inner self
to start a seed along,
to plant a bulb, and help them thrive
is genuinely strong.

My garden revels in the touch
that only I can give;
for who else knows where each plant goes
and how to make them live.

Dividing time between the two
is hampering my flow,
but, I can type with dirty nails
and you will never know. :)

Thought I would share the reason I have been absent lately. I love gardening and poetry and it is hard to find time for both in the planting season.... btw, my nails are clean at the moment ;)

On tap for today... planting window boxes, nasturtiums and transplanting perennials... mums and grasses. So very fun when it all comes together. The photo above is my new peony bush ... Midnight Sun.
