Dear Yard Work,
How I have missed you.
You've been buried under snow
And leaves and twigs and
dead looking junk that
during the wet winter
I really didn't want to
touch or get near.
Because yucky wet black leaves are gross. And dark
and frequently causes a slight panic attack.
But now you are back, yard work.
The sun has dried up that nastiness.
And with a few pills and a bit of
determination I have rid my yard
of winters past. And stay out!
I like you yard work. You're so much
better than dishes and laundry.
You live, you breathe, you make
my muscles sore. You look beautiful
for a long time.
You give back, dear yard work.
You give me beautiful colors and smells.
Which is exactly NOT what dishes and laundry do.
No beautiful smells from those guys.
And best of all,
you feed me.
Fruits and vegetables.
Which are yummy.
Thank you, yard work.
I look forward to our time together.

Dear Winter,
I am sad to see you leave
Your beautiful white
blankets my yard and releases
me from outside toil.
Because hot & sweaty weed pulling
is yucky.
I like you winter
You're so much better than
all the other seasons
You're cool temperatures
invigorate me.........

Amen to Ann's Amen.
What a beautifully-put post. I can almost feel the fresh air.

No Amen to when Mother makes us clean up all the dirt, rotten leaves, tomatoes, squash etc. But, yes the yard gives back with my wonderful cherries.
