Inspiration Ave Weekly Challenge

How does your garden grow? is this week's challenge over at Inspiration Ave .


Here's my contribution!



My garden grows with bits of heart

Mixed in among the seeds.
From the sweat and time my husband’s spent
Eliminating weeds.

The miracle of seeds breaking thru’
A soil ceiling hard as glass,
Is a never ending, amazing thing
To watch as time does pass.

  7. What beautiful gifts we get from the garden. It's worth every drop of sweat! For me, it's more like
    "blisters". Very nice complimenting poem as well.
