“My Summer Garden”
I’m always amused when my friends and neighbors marvel at my growing vegetables and flowers.
I don’t grow them …
The truthiness is that plants grow themselves …
I just help out a bit …
Seeding them …
Putting them in soil where sunlight will embrace the emerging leaves …
Weeding when needed …
Those are the conditions of the summer garden and gardener.
For authors … they need conditions, too.
What are yours?
