I know
the path leading up to a place like this. A place of
tranquillity and peace. Tucked behind
the orange trees my
own spot is here for me, waiting for me to arrive, pop on
my
flip flops and step outside into the backyard with
a coffee in
hands.
Have
you ever being greeted by the birdsong, the caress of
the sun, absorbed in the
beauty of your own garden?
If so, you can surely appreciate what is around on
your
doorstep. This is the stuff some weekends are made of,
a leafy coffee, a
book and a little chat, enjoying moments
of privacy in those nooks and crannies
throughout
our second garden in the village.
Looking
around we usually come to the same conclusion;
still much to do, to
correct and add. Some parts look completely
tattered, elsewhere it looks better.
A space in continuous mutation, following the seasonal changes,
flexible and easy going, taking on a life of its own.
We are still experimenting things, not quite
satisfied with
the result…The backyard is shady, the front yard is basking in
the sunshine and it was wrong to plant the same things on both
sides. Weather
didn’t help. We have seen a strange, weird truly
crazy weather this year. Let’s
hope weather will normalize...
The school year is over; it has flown by so quickly,
finals
are done although the result isn’t still out.
May all kids have a fabulous and restful summer,
full of
great and fun experiences...They all deserve it.
May inexperienced gardeners like me, find their
way
to create the little oasis they need in life.
May we find the strength to sustain our dreams...
Wishing you all the best and
thank you again for visiting.
