It's out there. The Garden and the Backyard, too. It's waiting for me so it can drag me in and turn me monster green. The rains were falling and now the sun is shining. The grass has sprouted up to window sill height. Where's a cow when you need her? But it's also the blackberries. Those vines keep sprouting up from no where, and spreading out. It's a continuous horror movie. Although, I really like eating the fruit in August. That's when I get lulled into thinking the blackberry vines aren't so bad. But when your barn is starting to disappear behind the blackberries, it is bad! Tricksy vines.
The peas I started several weeks ago in little pots in the house want real dirt in the real outdoors but I changed a couple of things in the yard and the garden isn't ready. My poor little peas are starting to wilt. It may have to do with the cat chewing on them now and then. I bought seeds. I feel the pull. But once I start, there is no end. None. Ever. I will have to continue to plant, grow, and eat. The shame of it all. The tragedy!
Here's a short radio show episode called The Garden. The events are true but the names have been changed to protect the innocent. (hahahaha...enjoy!)
