In Jacqueline's Garden
June 23rd. Summer is here and the garden is displaying a fuller look. Under the perseverance of the dedicated gardener, and necessary watering because of the drought condition, the garden is taking shape. Colors are abundant, shoots of future garden residents, vernonias, hibiscus, bright lights, cosmos, zinnias and many others, are showing signs of healthy growth.
ROSES
Roses, timidly first, but more boldly now, are making their presence felt in the garden. Their fragrance adds to the divine perfume of the peonies. Soon, lavender will also dispense its very unique layer of olfactory pleasures.
THE BUDDHA
The Buddha suffered many falls during inclement weather. A broken base could not erase the enlightened smile. The break is large enough for wasps to squeeze inside and build a honeycomb in the hollow body.
