Sunday Savvy 32

Sunday savvy -
sweeping leaves and feathers
a faint cooooo cooo sound
--gillena cox

Sunday is the day that i like to sweep the yard and prune shrubs; i like a beautiful garden, but i'm not much of a gardener, most of the flowering plants in my garden i have planted; but i'm not very consistent; therefore i pay to have my gardening chores done.
I have recently planted in my back yard portion of the garden, lemon grass, hot peppers and spanish thyme (which i use in seasoning fish) and have been looking in on them; we'll see how that goes
But really, sweeping and pruning on Sunday i feel a certain joy in doing; other days of the week should i do the same thing i feel like its a chore

Serendipity



little red berry -
still a prominent presence
through the yet overgrown weeds

New Flowers


I recently received from one of my poet pals who lives in the US, the gift of a handmade doily; for the image in this haiga, i used a photo of that gift.
