“One day you will look back and see that all along you were blooming.”
~Morgan Harper Nichols
I’m a little sad to see that fall is making its appearance with cooler temperatures and dying vegetation.
And yet, my garden still blooms.
My petunias have straggles of browned stems but colourful blooms still reach for the warm sun and declare, “We’re not over yet!”
The Morning Glory blossoms are not as prolific as they were, but some flower funnels still glow in brilliant colours, greeting the morning sun.
The Echinacea are no longer in their prime but they still bloom, not yet ready to give up completely.
How like my garden I am. We both are in the fall of our lives. Maybe not as beautiful as we once were, but still blooming, still growing. There is still time to enjoy the day’s gifts and make an offering.
