Option One Poetry
Weather means more when you have a garden. There’s nothing like listening to a shower and thinking how it is soaking in around your green beans.
~Marcelene Cox
Using the quotation above as your inspiration, write a poem (any form is fine) about weather meaning more

Weather
In a garden
Nutritional diet
Healthy balance of sun and rain
Eden

Living
This century
Odd cluttered smorgasbord
Humanity needs images
Plastic

Meaning
Nature's future
Rich feast or starvation
We hold the pattern of weather
Loosely
~
Our hope
Our tomorrow
Rests with Mother Nature
She holds rights to eternity
Tightly

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I love this nutritional diet I am now cultivating, my snow peas (stir-fry) are starting to sprout ever so slightly, as they were snowed on a little yesterday, not to worry, they are a hardy lot!
This is an ode to a true nature lover, I just wish it would warm up enough here to go role in the dirt...doesn't take much for me...ha!
Good words!
