Through My Lens 

May 2020

We all look at life through our own lens

 


As we usher in this beautiful Spring, my thoughts turn to my garden and the visual feast I have with all of my flowers. We, like the flowers in our garden, have all been planted in a different part of the country, in different soil, different environments, with different weather patterns.  Thus, it matters not where we are it is up to us to bloom just where we have been planted.
     During these challenging times, may each of you reap the beauty in the garden that you have planted.

 Until Next Time....

Bloom Where You've Been Planted
 

 
"Bloom where you've been planted"

Is  really great advice.

We only live in just one spot

So  can't be planted twice.

 
The rose bush in my garden

Is  not always on the go.

But does bloom where she's planted

And  her blooms are a great show.

 
My red impatiens sparkle

And  give such delight to all.

They are planted near the fountain
Delighted  in their call.

 
I too  must bloom where I'm planted

And  delight in just being me.

As God does care for my flowers

He, too, will care for me.
