Grandma's Garden
Author: Erin Kilmer
I remember Grandma's garden
The beauty and the grace
Of all the lovely flowers
In that dear sweet place
I remember Grandma's smile
As she planted, pruned, and tilled
Laboring with love and laughter
As this world with joy she filled
I remember Grandma's patience
When we ran amid the flowers
With her beauty all around us
We would spend those precious hours
I remember Grandma's garden
And I'm happy in the knowing
That when she knelt there in the soil
It wasn't just flowers she was growing

Journalling reads:

My grandma lost her entire garden to Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. She spent years cultivating a huge eclectic garden on her property. I remember when I was little she would let me go out there and pick flowers and dig in the dirt. She taught me the satisfaction of watching seeds sprout and flowers bloom. I will always be grateful for that gift. I ordered these iris bulbs from Holland for her for Christmas before the storm hit. None of us realized that they would be the first thing she would plant after losing her garden and having her home flooded by 13 feet of water. I like to think they symbolize rebirth and the hope that her garden will flourish again! March 2006
