Time to throw ourselves outdoors…

Have been waiting for the last of the spring rains

so I could toss pillows and myself outdoors…

Husband on vacation, kids moving hither and yon,

a wide patch of new landscape cleared of stumps

and old ivy, “Walt Whitman” compost (Leaves of Grass)

scattered across the garden, thirty new lavender

plants crisscrossing over new terrain…

The full tilt into summer begins!
