I started on ‘spring’ early this year by planting an indoor garden in November. Hands in dirt planting seeds filled with the promise of good taste and nutrition is always rejuvenating for me. December and January saw things coming up gingerly as I watered and misted and talked to the bright seedlings rising to the light. By February and March everything was developed enough to eat the salad greens and the herbs, like basil, cilantro, parsley and dill. What a treat for both the eyes and the taste buds.
And outside the grape hyacinths and tulips have been blooming along with the henbit, dandelions and violets. All shades of green form the backdrop to the vibrant colors.
The angel is healing from having one of her wings broken off when either a squirrel, raccon or the wind knocked her over. She is still lovely even with only one wing.
What beauty and healing within and without!
