Friendship

Poem by: Sylvia Outlaw


Friendship

Friendship is like a garden

With different flowers everywhere;

Some are your very favorite’s

And you treat them all with care.

Others may drift by the wayside

They soon whither and fade away;

But some will continue to blossom

In true friendship day after day.

And I pray in my life’s garden

I’ve planted friendship to keep;

That I have sowed some kindness

And I’ve planted it good and deep.

And as I count my blessings

And my flowers one by one

I see your face among them

Moving in the morning sun.

God’s helped me with my garden

He’s been there my whole life through;

And he gave me the greatest gift

When He gave me friends like you

Princess Garden

This is my new area for mostly my Japanese Red Maples and other smaller bushes that hopefully will grow to be much larger. In the little waterfall fixture that doesn't work any more I discovered a tiny spring frog in the fixture. Just as I finished the new garden I heard her start to sing. I got a tear then and named it "Princess Garden". It really sets the back yard off and shows up so beautiful as you drive up the driveway.
I can hardly wait for it to develope and will probably spend a lot of time making sure all is OK. I seen a couple other spring frogs in the pump house the other day, so I just may have to catch them and put them in the new garden. And they all lived happily ever after. LOL
