Poem.

It was a lot cooler today which made it nice for getting some gardening done.  I finished putting flowers in a couple of planters but will wait until after the long weekend to buy the majority of my plants.  We had a short thunderstorm last night which was more wind than anything else.  Our hydro went out at 4.30 and came back on at 8.30.  Areas to the south of us had a lot of damage to houses and the power is still out in some places.

I discovered this poem today and thought it was  great one for mother's.  Feel free to share including the name of the author.

blessings,

“You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy,
you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky.

You are my Honolulu moon, you are the book I did not write,
you are my heart's unuttered tune, you are a candle in my night.

You are the flower beneath the snow, in my dark sky a bit of blue,
answering disappointment's blow with "I am happy! I have you!”
