Taking A Knee
In the garden there are many sounds
subtle tones and melodies
some profound and some I barely hear
I take a knee
I ponder and absorb
and when I stand
I am taken aback
For in my tending
they are teaching me to be silent
We think ourselves the teachers
yet our simple friends have much to relay
I have learned much from them
more than I could say

Silence is the best reason for going to the garden. My head even stops thinking and the chatter quiet. Nice job. Thanks.
