Just in from the main garden.
Walked around and into it.
Pulled a few weeds.
Ate a few sprigs of FRESH kale.
Ate a leaf of FRESH basil.
Filled mouth with mixed emotions.
Visited with the zinnias.
Looked over the patches of colors.
No bees or butterflies yet today.
Practiced SEEING individual blossoms.
Breathe in. Look at a blossom. Breathe out.
Breathe in. Look at a different blossom. Breathe out.
For thiry breaths and thirty blossoms.
Touched one zinnia type with a ring of single petals.
Touched each petal.
Was aware of each petal.
Acknowledged the flower's center, sides, and underside.
Silently said Goodbye to the growing greens and glowing colors.
Walked back to the house much the same - but different.
Oh, and there is sunshine right now.
And many many many green tomatoes.
Back to tea, soft jazz, and working with the bears.
Didn't stop to smell the roses.
Zinnias did just fine for the stop today.
