After the Rain.....


            There was such a sweet smell in the air this morning.  The smell of the morning sun on the earth after yesterday's rain.  Not often smelt here and nostalgically reminding me of my lovely, long lost English garden.

            But as the morning wore on and the Bananas and Papyrus began to look a lot better after their Spring pruning and that thorny, thug of an Asparagus vine was cut away from the Mahonia and the dappled sun warmed the Jungle Corner where I was working,  the thought came to me that this, now garden is just as lovely.
