Worth Writing

In a child’s dreams, a child such as I was, who dreamt such dreams as I dreamt, the trees were tall, the gardens lush, and every lovely comforting thing was old and established and had been waiting just for me forever.  All gardens were Eden to a child such as I, and Eden had existed since the beginning of Our Time. 

It is hard for children such as I was to become adults such as I am and have to plant the seedlings and the bulbs and buds and wait for them to grow.  A delight to some, it can be kind of sad to some, such as I of the Seuss-like was-and-am sort.  We’re never entirely a ‘was’ or an ‘am’.  We’re always was-and-am as one.   And so some such as I plant our gardens and take our photos and wax poetic about the lushness of the tomorrows and the to-becomings. 

Can you see what I see to-beoming in the view from my porch?  From my back door?  Go to www.worthworks.com and click on the link in my “How does your garden grow?” article on the left.
