Hello my dear friends.. I haven’t been around for a few days as I have had 8 days in a row at work and have so longed for this weekend break.. Today I sat out in the glorious Sun that we so have longed for.. And while I listened to the birds I penned this poem.. I hope you enjoy..and I took a couple of photo’s of what inspired me in my garden..
Tranquil Garden
Sitting in the garden, as Blackbird sings her tune,
Summer is here, as we welcome the month of June
Foxgloves are in flower, as the Bumblebee explores
And new growth is around us, this time I just adore.
The fountain in the garden is tranquil, hear it flow
As peacefulness surrounds me, As I drift in Sun’s warm glow
The wind chimes they do tinkle, and the breeze just gently blows
And the pigeon in the tree top her cooing never slows
A neighbours cat is cooling, laid out beneath the shade
Oh how I love these tranquil, peaceful lazy days.
The grass appears much greener, or is it just my eyes,
For when we are contented, nature gives us our best prize.
We just have to take a moment in quiet thoughtful pose
To enjoy the bliss around us and be thankful I suppose.
Do we ever take a moment to give our heartfelt thanks?
For somewhere people are fighting and living with enemy Tanks.
So Bless those quiet moments of peace within your home
For you never know when it could be shattered,
and darkness soon enclose
So enjoy the moments of each bright new sunny day
As we say goodbye to rainclouds in this last day of May,

Really beautiful poem and a tranquil garden. I love gardening and mowing! Your water feature is glorious! Is that a yesterday, today, tomorrow plant? Cute cat too, my son adores cats but I have just found out he\’s allergic to cat hair. I was thinking I might get him a cat, but I really didn\’t want to as I can\’t tolerate the smell of cat litter. In July we have new laws coming in and all cats must be microchipped and registered with local council just like dogs. Anyone who visits the vet won\’t be able to take their cat home without having the microchip installed. Another money making revenue… if the cat is caught out at night it will be impounded the same as a dog. I guess cat and dog owners have lost their freedom of choice in that instance too.
