TOO SOON TO DIG IN

ART & POETRY BY KATHY BOECHER

When bygone days of winter pass and snow is off the ground,

I tend to think of planting things, and wait without a sound,

There’s nothing like new life I think, while pushing through dead leaves,

The natural mulch has molded some and makes me want to sneeze.

Still there is something calling me, to dig and plant and wait,

I can’t describe what’s stirring me, it just makes me feel great.

So onward, ever onward now, to find a nursery,

With COVID cash I’m going to shop, I might just buy a tree.

Then suddenly it hits me , I don’t do manual labor,

I’ll just bake some cookies for our husky next door neighbor,

But he just moved a month ago, so I am up a creek,

I best forget the gardening until my bones don’t squeak.

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
