Lit's Garden

[moondoggie]

A couple of weeks ago, I was talking with a friend about our gardens. I thought it would be nice to see a thread that let us have our own garden. A place where anyone can come, relax, chase the blues away...or for a secret rendevous with that special someone. With spring going at full bore, I figured I give it a try.

Lit's Garden is limitless. It strecthes as far as the eye can see. A large grove of Blue Spruces outline the main opening. The cool shadows welcome you to enter. As you walk down the needle mulch path, your steps release the smell of the spruces. You walk out into a waist high wheat field. The path ends. Straight ahead on the horizon are towering moutains. To your left the spruces mingle to become a forest of mixed trees. On your right, is a stream and on the opposite bank a field of wild flowers. You notice that as you walk through the wheat; it brushes aside of you and fills in behind you. No one knows where you been or where you are going. So continue and seek out the riches of Lit's Garden.....

... then there's the waterfall, tucked into a cleft on a small hillside.
The water is crystal clear and trickles temptingly over ancient mossy stones and boulders.
There is a pool at the bottom of the waterfall. Ferns surround it, draping over the edges, the tips of their fronds trailing in the water. The pool is dark; but you can catch a glimpse of a pebbly bottom and brightly coloured koi that flash amid the shadows....

How about a lavender field .....with daisies tucked here and there.

I'll put my hammock in the dappled shade under the the trees, for my favorite pastime - reading. It's a nice BIG one, on the off-chance that someone might want to join me here...

....a small stone bridge takes you over the stream. The current is swift with the melting of winters snows from the mountaind peaks. Cat-tails and Fragmites grow along the shore swaying with the breeze beckoning you to continue...

I was thinking of sunflowers. Walked through the towering stocks and found a small glen with a small babbling brook. Set my picnic basket down. Opened a bottle of sparkling wine. The bubbles remind me of the brook. Spread out a blanket and set out a small meal. Cheese and crackers, grapes, apple slices from the apple grove I passed on the way here. Sun is so warm, and the wine makes me sleepy. I lay back and look into the blue sky. Watching the clouds sail by, like mile high sail boats. Bees are buzzing and the birds sing softly to me....

I want to walk by and smell the gardenias and send a ladybug home.

a tulip garden... lots of different colors too. and daisies too.. and poppies..


*sigh* oh so pretty too.

 

[moondoggie]

I wake up from my little nap, and feeling refreshed begin to follow the brook to see where adventure and Lit's Garden lead me.

...run back to the glen...almost forgot the wine...never know who I might run into...

...lovely, care for a glass of wine? Walking next to an herb garden. The smells come rushing from all around. Rosemary, sage, mint and jasmin. Think I'll sit and enjoy the sensation.

Time to move. Night is setting in. I climb the mountain to face the setting sun. The sun turns all below amber and then its dark. But the garden is still alive; just listen to the sounds.

By all means join me. Let me spread my blanket to soften the ground. I pour you a glass. Then watch the fading sun play of your emerald eyes. Breathtaking. I lean towards you and give you a kiss with the last of the days light.

Morning finds us, asleep in each others arms. A dew covers all the landscape. I kiss your closed eye lids. Watching the first morning light play across your features, I sigh with contentment.

I leave you sleeping to go off and find some breakfast. I find a small hill covered with different types of berries. Removing my shirt, I pick several varieties. Then I return to you, and gently wake you.

Oh how I love Fresh berries .....

GOOD Morning .....

Thank you....

I'll feed you a dewberry. Taking your hand, I hold it to my heart. Then I ask you to come explore the garden with me.

Lilacs

Down by the stream there is a lone lilac bush.
The purple buds nestled in th green leaves.
I place a blanket down next to it.
I lay down there to watch the buds sloftly pop open at the coaxing of the sun.
The fresh fragrance tickling my nose....awakening my senses.
I feel relaxed and free.
