Circular white stones specifically placed to accentuate the lay out of the land. A masonry separating the patch of earth from the outside world. Delicate roses planted in a specific place. Dark earth exposed to the sun mixed with the right compost. The dank smell that permeates the air. Beautiful blossoms of all colors that glisten with dew in the morning sun. I place I like to sit and think while enjoying the fragrances that blend with the smell of earth. Flowers of elegance, that give me such joy in my rose garden.

Every so often we must cut back things that have grown too out of control. As a rose bush must be pruned or a grape vine must be trimmed, so must the problems of life be cut back in order for us to have room to grow.
