Breath of life, and the garden began to fill with flowers.

“Breath is the bridge which connects life to consciousness, which unites your body to your thoughts.”

– Thich Nhat Hanh

Birds seek food for their babies and make nests elsewhere, while bees seek pollen and nectar from many bright-coloured flowers.

The sun shining on the ground warms the soil, allowing many thousand seeds to sprout from the ground below.

The apple trees, born from seeds, are now ready to spread their wings. They are starting to produce new growth from the pot, a sign that it’s almost time to transfer them to larger pots. A faithful companion, the sun shines down, though it occasionally hides behind the clouds.

Hey on, strawberries will produce more flowers in the coming weeks. It’s time for their food to be fertilised in a few days.

Wisteria is growing in the pot. I found a new seedling of a very young wisteria shoot near the carport and gently pulled it out by showing the root exposed for potting until it is more robust enough to replant in the new location near the water pump hut. Mm, not next to the water tank-water pump hut; otherwise, the wisteria’s root system is aggressive. Since the wisteria root system is so large and powerful, bother! Next plan where?

There does the chainsaw noise – “brrrr” or “vroom vroom.” This is an example of onomatopoeia, where the word imitates the sound it represents when my partner was chainsawing down a pair of fences, for he had some idea to make a way to walk across or to use his ride-on mower to the cherry trees field. That goodness for he did not damage the young tree in the Cherry Trees field.

I have been slowly recovering from a nasty illness for over two weeks. I am looking forward to a well-earned break, but my chest is not strong enough to do physical gardening, and my mental abilities need to think straight and calmly.
