I picked some bird peppers from my garden this morning; interesting fact about these peppers - they are planted by birds, sort of like a divine gift to gardens.

Loved the poem. The picture of the peppers set it off well. I had a volunteer tomato plant pop up in my garden and in spite of being roughly transplanted it ate the rest of the garden.
ReplyDeleteReading this is a refreshing opening to the morning.We have a bean vine in the middle of our zinnias that appears to have been planted by birds, or possibly squirrels. Nature is cool like that.
ReplyDeletefascinating peppers and lovely words ...the twitter of birds do bring so much pleasure.
ReplyDeleteBird gifts . .
ReplyDeleteyou make it all seem like magic - and that's marvelous.

Oh my Gillena, your little piece was a beauty but the presence of that Christmas tune and jingle beside it stole the show. Yay!!! Christmas is near, let's celebrate!!! thanks for the reminder. haha
ReplyDeleteGillena, have not read you before. What a nice little blog you have here! Me, if I am awakened by the twitter of birds, I am usually pissed! Ha ha ha, but I am a late sleeper and so those first morning birds are a perpetual nuisance. Didn't let that spoil trying to be someone else when reading this poem, though. And your factoid about how the birds plant those little peppers really added to it11 Amy

... suggesting then, that you may harvest what they have sown? _m
ReplyDeleteOh wonderful that the birds actually plant these. What a gift! It's a blessing for your garden.
ReplyDeleteThe peppers look great. But these are the hottest kind, the smaller the hotter! Great lines Gillena!
ReplyDeleteHank
That kind of pepper is familiar to me I think I have it in my garden but don't pick it up my hubby said it can't be eaten just for decoration. But I don't believe it peppers are peppers right? I think I have to harvest mine and mix it to my pickle. ^_^
ReplyDeleteMary, MI
