The Long shadows

Sun is communicating in symbolic way, presenting long shadows early in the morning. It's the best time to be in the garden, looking at flowers and plants. The picture is showing the left side of the garden viewed from the front porch. There is kantan, the new bed for roselle and at the far end kangkong and ulam raja.  Morning is so fresh, plants seem to place more green pigments on their leaves, posing for a green picturesque morning.....

Garden Shadows

by Bliss Carman

When the dawn winds whisper

To the standing corn,

And the rose of morning

From the dark is born,

All my shadowy garden

Seems to grow aware

Of a fragrant presence,

Half expected there.

In the golden shimmer

Of the burning noon,

When the birds are silent

And the poppies swoon,

Once more I behold her

Smile and turn her face,

With its infinite regard,

Its immortal grace.

When the twilight silvers

Every nodding flower,

And the new moon hallows

The first evening hour,

Is it not her footfall

Down the garden walks,

Where the drowsy blossoms

Slumber on their stalks?

In the starry quiet,

When the soul is free,

And a vernal message

Stirs the lilac tree,

Surely I have felt her

Pass and brush my cheek,

With the eloquence of love

That does not need to speak!

It's a must for me to turn a while as I get out through the front door, 

because the view is pleasing.
