My garden,
like much of my life,
a little scruffy,
a little rough around the edges,
beautiful to my eyes
but perhaps not everyone’s
cup of tea.
Today I watched
a queen red-tailed bumblebee
dusted in golden pollen
feasting on a dandelion,
mother of next summer’s bees
sustained by my laziness,
my dislike of weeding.
Perfection may ensnare us
but it is a sterile thing,
there is treasure
to be found
in the wild,
in the untamed,
at the rough edges of life.
Wonderful, Sarah!

I agree Sarah, a bumblebee covered in pollen is more inspiring than a tidier garden 🙂
