Wednesday Garden – Peas and Corn

Time for more garden pictures from the driveway:

Squash and cucumber seedlings

 

The second bed now has it’s crop ready to go.

Peas almost ready to harvest.

The pea crop is doing well and we should have fresh peas soon.

After the peas we’ll have corn.

The corn is doing well and I’m looking forward to some fresh corn.

More gardening next week.

Not Writing

There are times when words fail,
and silence says more.

There are moments when
a sunset brings the comforting
silence of night.

When our urge to rage
against the machine
is laid bare as the pain
of failing dreams.

A sunrise.
A warming of the ground.
A gentle breeze
with the smell of hope.

I have not written these things.
I have only felt them flow from my
hands to the keyboard.

I sit here knowing I have nothing to say,
and can only ask that you seek
the silence.

and listen to what it says.

Friday Wisdom – Did You Hear?

Did you hear about the dyslexic Satanist? He sold his soul to Santa

Did you hear about the guy who lost his left arm and leg in a car crash? He’s all right now.

Did you hear about the man who was tap dancing? He broke his ankle when he fell into the sink.

Wednesday Gardening – Seedlings

These are the last of the seedlings from our indoor growing area.  To get a bit of a jump on summer we started most of our seeds inside under a grow lamp.  This bunch will be planted by the weekend.

Seedlings waiting to be planted outside.
