Collaboration

The summer has been intense already – Heat, rain, more heat. It feels more like DC here than western Massachusetts these days.

The Garden is loving it. I am astounded that after only 2 real years, it looks so mature and robust. I appreciate that now, it is coming into its own form and is more of a collaboration between what I had initially planned and time, space and the world around me….I think Stanley Kunitz puts it best:

“Certainly gardening has many collaborative aspects to it. You’re helping to create a living poem. Philosophically, the garden is a co-creation; it expresses something of the character of the place itself, something that any human intervening there must respect.”

– from the Wild Braid.
