Deb's Garden in late August

My Mother's Garden

A burst of color
Beds of blossoms, buds, foliage -

My mother's garden.


Also,


A stepping stone path
Winds through colorful blossoms;
My mother's garden.

Garden Views

Not Yet Frost!

A misting of dew
Glistens in the rising sun
On the fallen leaves.

A garden filled
with a fading abundance
Awaits the first frost.

View from Ogden's East Mountains

As for house sitting, I am in a house that is high up on Mountains east of Ogden. The view is fantastic. The dog is a bright-eye Australian Shepherd. Their yard is delightful. The front yard is filled with lovely flowers and the backyard is forested by oaks and evergreens.

Contrasts in the Garden

In art, we learn about complimentary colors as well as light and shadow. The garden is filled with contrasts and complimentary colors.

More Flowers from Mom's garden

Each day my mother's garden becomes more lovely. I have always be intrigued by bleeding hearts, and oh, aren't the shooting stars beautiful. The cement mushroom in he shooting stars is my mother's own creation. She has made and added numerous cement mushrooms throughout the garden.
