My dream is to be the Garden. To be the plants; to be the soil; to be the rocks; to be the person who could be out in the dream garden all day long, planting, caring for, rearranging and being a part of it all, day in and day out. This dream garden would have paths of colorful flagstone and brick everywhere, to every plant, to every sitting spot, to every great view. Surrounding this space and time would the butterflies and hummingbirds play, the sweet smell of flowers attracting them to a dance of vibrating wings. This dream garden would be free of misplaced weeds, have many beautiful flowers and a vast varity of colorful containers to house them in. This dream garden would have several types of water features, such as ponds and waterfalls full of splashing melodies and fish eager to entertain me in their aqua style homes. This dreaming garden would be held in awe within the mighty branches of many a majestic tree. This garden of dreams would contain the very joyous presence of what it means to be a well nutured growing form of plant life. All I have mentioned here is real in my dream garden but only on a much smaller scale. You see, I started out with just one plant, one stone, one drop of water and one dream that some day the place that I live in would become the dream garden of my desires and slowly but surely it is happening right before my very eyes. A lifetime of embracing the very essence of being in a dream garden, one day at a time. An honor and a blessing. Yes, my dream is to be the Garden. .
