A Sentiment

God knew what He was doing when He sent a gentle breeze and brought a lovely butterfly to set my heart at ease. The happiness of your friendship and the gentleness of your words have touched my life in special ways and now I feel assured. Thank you for your loyalty and for reading everyday. I only hope you find things to make a happy day.

Asters in My Garden by Balisha


It's 43 degrees outside this morning. We had the down comforter on last night and it felt good. Joe and I have an ongoing thing about when the comforter should go on. He would be happy with it in August and I want to wait till later. Ah, viva la difference....I am so French since wearing a beret! I stepped outside to take a few pictures and now blogger won't let me post them. Well, time for a poem.

Asters in My Garden

I had a little aster plant given once to me..
It wasn't very big you know and very hard to see.
I put it in my garden and waited through the year..
For it to blossom purple and bring me lots of cheer.
I waited through the summer.. gently taking care..
I saw it's every leaf that formed and every bud so fair.
Just when September came and it was soon to pop..
I saw the plant so huge that it made me holler stop!
It had grown to such proportions this little plant of mine..
The plant had grown so much that I wrote this little rhyme.
It took the whole darn corner of my little garden fair..
The people walking by began to really stare.
It's out there now a stunner in my garden small..
It towers over everything it is so very tall.
The bees and I will love it this little corner treasure..
My garden is so pretty now it's beauty without measure.
I'll go a snap a picture and try to post it here..
If blogger will just let me and bring me lots of cheer.
