I knew once I'd finished, you would arrive.  Finished?  Well, nothing's perfect.  Already I've needed Sevin and Roundup.  The heart-shaped leaves fell off the red bud tree.<p>

The Garden of Eden was a lure.  Allure.  Step into my garden said the spider to the fly.  I admit it, sometimes you are my victim.  Sometimes I see you planting me.  What does it matter when there is love.  And spiritual bonding.  Out my window, I see the hibiscus, a double pink.  Tomorrow, I begin the fountain.</a><p></font> </td></tr></table></center>
