You have weeping willows and sugar maples. You have beeches that make me want to read old fairy tales and pines that have, sometimes, not one, but two cardinals sitting in the branches. They cheer me on my worst days and they feel like a festive surprise party on my best days.Īnd it’s not just your flowers, but also your trees. Whether it is a sophisticated delphinium or a common marigold-your flowers knock me over. They are a miracle of color and delicate sculpture. But there is one simple truth about gardens. Some of you would (and do) swat away compliments of your gardens-saying that they are nothing special. A chance to hold my history with one flower. Seeing those foxgloves is like a visit from an old friend and an old self when I get to pass by it. I am grateful to the neighbor whose garden contains one of my favorite plants -an old fashioned pale yellow foxglove-a plant I used to have in my old garden, brought home from an old garden in Maine. I love the flowers when they are blooming and even when they aren’t-I love the giant false indigo plants after it has bloomed with its gorgeous black pods laced within their leaves. I love the rag-tag orange daylilies and even the cornflower that you didn’t weed away-with that blue color you just want to swim in. You may look out at your own gardens and see only the things that you haven’t done, or the weeds that are creeping in, but not me. How much those flowers remind me of someone dear, who passed away years ago, and whose words and counsel I desperately needed that day and found, once again, in the beauty of your flowers. You couldn’t possibly know that your peonies would bloom on the day that I had gotten bad news and so desperately needed to see their full pink beauty, and put my face down into their blossoms to smell their sweet smell. How much I appreciate your hard work in autumn that allows for such a sweet surprise in the spring. How much I delight and say hello to each one like a long lost relative. You have no idea how much your snowdrops and crocus and daffodils mean to me in early spring. Every day I walk past your yards and gardens and homes and every day I am the grateful and fortunate recipient of beauty and surprise and love. “Oh, this is so good, the kind of song that will make you MOVE!" wrote another fan.Thank you.
