GARDENER'S CONFESSION

In April the small wood behind
our house teems with Virginia bluebells.
Five years ago I planted three.
Multiplication followed. I claim
no credit for the the resulting
beauty and rightly so.

However, if you were to see it
and offer your congratulation
for the loveliness spread out
in front of you, I would probably nod
and smile and let you think
I was landscape artist, gardening genius
and Mother Nature all rolled into one.
