The Garden tools wait.
Cloud paintings fill the Spring sky.
Enchanted I watch.
My heart has been outdoors, wandering amongst the trees and flitting about with the wild birds. I see new hatchlings in the nest by my door. They get bigger everyday, along with my plants and herbs. Such richness. I may be the richest woman on the block!

There are cloud paintings here, too! And is it true, "There's no place like gnome?"
oh kathleen,
so perfect, this willingness to give yourself to utter fascination. love your haiku, your enchanting place here in my heart.
I totally relate to your haiku! Sometimes I go outside with a plan and quickly get off on a tangent...and who's to say what's more important? The call of spring is looking downright gorgeous at your house!
Thanks for the wonderful comments on my blog - I'm so glad we found each other!
Looking up is a favorite pastime on
a day like today.

Your posts always give me another way to see. How I love his--and your--enchantment. You give me hope and strength to be a light on my own block.
I LOVE cloud paintings. Thank you for reminding me to look up! And I love turtles. Is he dancing with the gnome?
You trigger me to go outside and look up today. I love your haiku!!!
I never thought of clouds like that before, you've expanded my view! How lovely that we can share our riches like this!

Wonderful that you stop your work to make things beautiful to see the beauty and savor it. I have seen the Gnomes in yards and gardens, but don't know anyone that has one, (or more). Our lawn ornaments are Grandchildrens toys! I'm sure my Grandkids would make friends with your Gnome if it were around here.
Peace
oh yes, cloud paintings! what a wonderful turn of phrase... and a heart-lifting sight. you have a lovely blog... and thanks for your nice comment over at my place (the dog - or should i say "the queen?" thanks you too ;)
Well, I love the garden gnome. He is almost a cultural archetype, a guardian of plants and herbs. Beautiful haiku and a very evocative post.

Hi Paintdiva! Spring never fails to renew us! I love your haiku and the prose poem below. Your herb garden looks perfect, so you can wait awhile to pick up the tools! The gnome and his turtle look so peaceful. Yes, you are living in the moment! Enjoy!
