PERENNIALS FOR FREE
Thanks to Karen Harvey in Pennsylvania for this tip!
Last spring when everyone's flower beds came alive, I watched the neighborhood for people who had a large amount of perennials. I bravely walked up to the door and introduced myself and told them how beautiful their flowers were and asked for a piece to put in my flower bed. No one turned me down and I ended up meeting nice people along the way. I now have about 25 perennials for free. I can't wait for spring to see how things are doing. My husband did think I was a little crazy, but he also knows I'm very social.
DANDELION COURAGE
©2006 Linda J. Stevenson
These persistent little flowers,
How abundantly they grow
Through sidewalk cracks and nurtured lawns,
And they put on quite a show.
They’re mowed and trampled underfoot,
And yet still they reappear
So persistently determined,
For they never shrink in fear.
No one can deny their beauty
When a child before you stands
As he lifts his treasures upward
Clasped so tightly in his hand.
These true symbols of persistence
E'er remind us to hold fast,
Undefeated through life’s trials,
Anchored sure in stormy blasts.
The little Dande“lion” roars
In triumph though it is small,
There depicting Godly courage,
Testifying to us all.
