An Invitation

  Step into my garden, Linger in the lane; Wrap yourself in rosemary, Scent yourself with sage. Rosebuds beckon, daisies nod, Treetops lend their shade; Peace awaits the wanderer Whose heart is sorrow-swayed.

Step into my garden,

Linger in the lane;

Wrap yourself in rosemary,

Scent yourself with sage.

Rosebuds beckon, daisies nod,

Treetops lend their shade;

Peace awaits the wanderer

Whose heart is sorrow-swayed.

    Today was a sorrow-swayed day and that garden looks very inviting! 🙂

    1. melodylowes

      I’m sorry to hear that. Those days come more regularly than I would like, that’s for sure. Take some time to refresh yourself wherever you can!

    I love that there are special places for us to walk when we are sorrowful. Thanks , Melody!

    What a lovely invitation.

    1. melodylowes

      Come on in! Or is the multi-thousand-mile-across-the-ocean thing stopping you? 😉

      1. Gallivanta

        It stops the body but not the mind!

    Seriously Melody, you are an amazing Poet. Your work is brilliant. I actually feel joy when I read your poems. 🙂

    1. melodylowes

      Now, THAT hits the spot! hehe Thanks so much, Elizabeth – I am so honoured and humbled and thrilled to know that there is someone out there who enjoys what brings me so much pleasure. What an amazing gift, to know that you are out there feeling joy tonight. Yahoo!!

    Oh WOW-Wonderful–wish I could step through the PC screen.

    1. melodylowes

      Me too! I have a feeling we’d have a few minutes’ worth of conversation stored up, eh?

      1. Caddo

        Oh at least; this gal could jabber all the way up to Jesus’ coming back–and I ‘spect He might have to tap me on the shoulder if you hadn’t already kicked me in the shin!

        chortle/snicker/guffaw Who kicked who, hmmm?

      🙂 Too bad we can’t really have a sit down in each other’s gardens – how fun would that be?

  12. I HAVE A VOICE

    I thought I was reading a new recipe! Pinches of cumulus steamy goodness !

    1. melodylowes

      Throw in a tossed salad, and you’ve got a great meal! 😉

  13. Symanntha Renn

    This is why we garden.
    Your site looks really good. You’ve made changes, I like it though.

    1. melodylowes

      Thanks! I like to change the pictures and colour schemes with the seasons. I like change – within limits!
