A walk through my small garden

Those who plant Gardens plant happiness (Chinese proverb)

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;there is a rapture on the lonely shore;there is society where none intrudes,by the deep sea and music in its roar;I love not man the less but Nature more...to mingle with universe & feel what I can never express, yet can not conceal    - Lord Byron

Divine's greatest gift to mankind Nature:-rivers , sea, valleys mountains, sky, earth, flowers, trees..the list is endless.i am ever so grateful to God that there is a small space within my home to create a small garden& connect to nature.

                                                               

I was happy to see one morning a group of small birds( humming birds) fluttering over the plants.they were perched on a big canna leaf...happily chirping..

Visitors and residents- in the garden

My green thumb came only as a result of the mistakes I made while learning to see things from the plants point of view
 

 

My cup of joy overflows when I see my flowers in full bloom- I use these for worship, for flower arrangements;

What more can I ask for that morning , it was the bright way to start the day..simple joy!!

I dry the herbs from my garden & use them in cooking.My plants also add to the decor element inside my home




During one of my walks I clicked this lovely sight-the owner was looking questioningly -I told him "your flowers are beautiful"..I also admire others gardens.These flowers were gently swaying to breeze -Wonder what they are called? any clue ?
