This is a very lovely poem about so much more than just a garden. It's also about a relationship that blossomed in the garden, and continues even after the loss of one partner, which of course gives the garden a spiritual quality too. Very clever and very well written.

This poem is well crafted, and tells a lovely story. Congratulations on your winning entry. I like that the woman continues to garden after her husband is gone, and also that she shares the fruit of her labors with others. Blessings. Carol

After 13 inches of snow in the past 2 days, I have a bit of that longing also! Have a blessed weekend.

Congratulations on this beautiful poem winning a first place ribbon in the contest. It is a touching and lovely poem with so many strong images throughout. It is easy to see why it won so many votes. I was going to put a note on your profile page, but I get the impression you don't like to have those things cluttering up the place. Right? Anyway, I'm delighted for you as well as for my surprise. ;") Hugs, and keep up the winning streak.

This is beautiful writing and a sweet and rather heart breaking presentation. It is also encouraging as she continues to work in her beloved garden. Well done.

This is an absolutely beautiful poem you have penned using the required words! I think gardens are just wonderful. I recently heard the saying that you have truly matured when you grow things that you know you will never yourself see bloom

Your poem portrays the generous older woman still toiling in her garden. Time is slipping away; her beloved spouse is gone; the prolific beautiful garden links them still.
The rain could well be a metaphor showing the necessity of how difficulties can help things to blossom, such as loving cherished memories.
