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!
