 sowing season
Back to Full Blog  

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Have you ever wondered
How long will my sowing season last?
It seems that it's been years...

Did I plant the wrong seeds
Or were the right ones just neglected
Despite my best intentions?

Or in my impatience
Have I disturbed their germination
Sifting thru the soil
Searching for signs of a new and better life?

When will it be my turn...

I think so too, Colo. In fact, I know so!

Mostly, I've kept the pensive thoughts about my "sowing season" in the background all these years, feeling that to give it a name was to give it a life of its own... and that was one more burden my shoulders weren't strong enough to bear when I already felt I was carrying the weight of the world on my own.

But it's interesting that now, when so many wonderful things are breaking thru the earth and finally starting to grow around me, I can acknowledge that I've known a lot of despair. :) -Six

Six - had missed you - sometimes one does have to wonder at God's time table? But all of a sudden the right seed will sprout and away you will go! Blessings, june

Six:

Once seeds are sown, you shouldn't disturb the soil. Just occasionally throw a little fertilizer on top.

Hope you're doing well! How's your mom doing?

And my eyes are so sensitive to the bright light... thank goodness for dark sunglasses!

No..... I love YOUR poetry more, Colo! :)

Good to see you, June!

Yes, even as I've questioned the time table over the years... I try to trust that there's "a time to every purpose" that my worldly eyes cannot see. But good things are sprouting around me now, and life is good! :) -Six

by SixFootBlonde (PM , CC ) on Wednesday June 20, 2007 @ 12:05 PM




Oh now there's the key, Whit. Good fertilizer... but not to lay it on too thick, yes? :)

by SixFootBlonde (PM , CC ) on Wednesday June 20, 2007 @ 12:08 PM




Hi Miss Lou! Life is good, indeed. And Mom is still in remission with her lyphoma. It will never go away, but the key is keeping it in remission. She is stoked that she might have hair this summer! :) -Six

by SixFootBlonde (PM , CC ) on Wednesday June 20, 2007 @ 12:10 PM




I agree with Whit, Six. The magic's in the fertilizer and I'm REAL knowledgeable about fertilizer. There are those who'd tell ya I'm a veritable "bullshit artist"!

Ah, my good Captain! Remind me never to play poker with you... but then again, I think my finely honed feminine wiles would make it a draw!

How 'bout some "rock, paper, sissors"? :) -Six

Tis true, Heide. The pot has been simmering for eight years, though... I'm ready for a good rolling boil! :) -Six

I dunno, Six. I'm more of a "truth or dare" kinda guy.

That picture of the trees reminds me of the mosaic heart. One could use the word despair for it

Six says:

You do write beautifully, Six! And the picture and song compliment your poem.
The thoughts I can identify with, and the way you express them is very nice. I'm happy that things are growing for you!

by Daisy (PM , CC ) on Sunday June 24, 2007 @ 7:38 PM




Hiya Six - you express yourself so beautifully. Thanks for sharing. It's comforting to know that the feelings one feel are felt by others and it's encouraging to see how they are played out by others. Thanks for the encouragement!

Love ya

Well thank you, Daisy. It's not often I choose to give the "dark side" the light of day in my posts... but it's a part of me that exists... albeit a very small part. The happier side of what's happening for me currently is coming up in the next few days.

Well thank you, Mary, for those kind thoughts. I think maybe you and I have been passengers in the same boat on our respective voyages more often than we know. Always good to see you, and I'll stop over soon. Hope you're doing well! :) -Six

Hi Six,
I am going OK.
I don't get back to the old steream much these days.
really only to visit special friends like you and DeBunkem.
(and maybe Fat Northern Bastard)

Remember, you can mend a broken heart in Tahiti.

I think everyone feels that way at some point in their life, Six. I get it quite often myself. Timetables aren't much fun when you're wanting something good right now. All is God's time... You'll get yours very soon.

My favorite lines in this poem:

"Or in my impatience//
Have I disturbed their germination//..."

(This is a wonderful use of the word "impatience;" bringing
the two elements of the garden~~the plant & the human element~~into complete harmony..or disharmony. Beautiful, nonetheless.)

I look forward to reading more of your poetry,
and writings.

~~thank you, for posting this.

I really like your poem, and all I can say is to give it time. I tell myself that maybe it is not my time yet, but I will know when it is.

Take care, Six, and have a great weekend.

Not every seed takes root. That's why you'd better plant more than one. Out of ten seeds, three might take, maybe seven, but seldom ten. The more seeds you plant, the more likely you'll see life.

We played a little game at my place this weekend.
Bloggers were asked to pick three bloggers, say something nice about them and
CAST LOVE INTO THE STREAM !!!
This is what Captain Morgan said about you:

Sweet - Venus Vexed by SixFootBlonde - It’s easy for me to see why Prank was mesmerized by your aura! You're one rockin’ lady! May the music always play for you! The warmth of your smile makes me believe in global warming for sure!

Now, if you have time, maybe, you would like to

CAST LOVE INTO THE STREAM TOO?

Tell an old friend how much their friendship has meant to you.
Tell a new friend how glad you are to have found them.
OR
Welcome A New Blogger To The Stream.

(You can pick more than three if you want to.)

Hugggggggggggggggggggz,
Taylor

Colo: i hope both Prank and Six are on this list....even when people don't update as much they have left a great part of themselves with us.

Huggggggggggggggggggz,
Taylor
