Reflections on spirituality, nature and gardening. Saturday, May 18, 2013. 10 Days in May. The last week has been all about the bluebirds. I wake up each morning happy to hear the peeping of the babies in the box outside the bedroom window.

I am often glad when I overcome my ideas about how things should look in the garden. This iris takes my words away. A rose bush th...
