"To create a garden is to search for a better world. In our effort to improve on nature, we are guided by a vision of paradise. Whether the result is a horticultural masterpiece or only a modest vegetable patch, it is based on the expectation of a glorious future.
This hope for the future is at
the heart of all gardening. "
- Marina Schinz
The last line sums it all up for me!
There is really nothing quite like witnessing
the season of Spring-
Plants start crawling out of the ground,
sprouts of life start to emerge,
Lots of green and color emerge...

I find it quite magical and it renews my faith in life!
2011
Everyone feels it, even if they don't care
about gardening. There is a smell in the air,
a real sense of change in the atmosphere, it's
everywhere!

I'm ready to work and play in my garden....
Perhaps since we've had such a mild winter
we will be having an early spring???
I did use the word "optimism" didn't I??
Now if it would all just hurry up!!
(Oh yes, patience is not my best virtue!!)
Have a great day, and thanks for stopping by!
I noticd tiny buds popping up in my yard, but it did get colder after I saw them. Hope they can continue to grow and bloom. xo
ReplyDeleteThe plants always seem to know what to do. They are smart!
DeleteHope springs eternal. We have promising signs here too.
ReplyDeleteLiz,
ReplyDeleteI am so hoping that everything I planted in my tiny little cottage garden will come back and grow this year....
