Springtime in my Garden

"The kiss of the sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth,
One is nearer God's heart in a garden,
Than anywhere else on earth."
~ Dorothy Frances Gurney


It's springtime in the South, and sitting in my Charleston style garden is a glorious experience. The sun is shining brightly today, and there's a gentle, cool breeze.

All is right with the world.

Sipping a cup of tea and admiring Nature's splendor and abundance inspires happiness.

Everything is green and verdant and the birds awaken me each morning with their enchanting melodies. It's the time of year that brings hope to everyone.

Mother Earth is changing her robes and revealing the lively colors of her character. Perhaps you, too, feel the livelier side of your character!

I've had the opportunity to travel quite a bit lately, and it's a joy to relax on this Sunday afternoon and give thanks.

Thanking our Creator for this heavenly day, and sending peace and love to you all.

May the good fairies inhabit your garden, and may joy and happiness reign in your life.

"I remember that all through history, the way of truth and love has always won; there have been tyrants... and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end they always fall." Mahatma Gandhi
