"Whether we are poets or parents or teachers or artists or gardeners, we must start where we are and use what we have. In the process of creation and relationship, what seems mundane and trivial may show itself to be a holy, precious, part of a pattern." - Luci Shaw

Poppy Blooms
I have been trying for three years to grow the Oriental Big Poppy. Finally this year with great patience and perserverance I have a red orange one and a pink one. It is very exciting to see such a beautiful flower in our garden. I have learned alot from gardening- never give up and all the hard work is worth it. Although I heard Whoopi Golderberg say sometimes you have to walk away to save face and when things can not be changed. I agree with that. Somtimes things or people cannot change or you cannot change them. That saying "Give me the strength to change the things I can and to accept the things I cannot" seems perfect....A hard lesson in life!
