A garden view or two...

Here is the pumpkin making a break for it....I'm hoping it doesn't grow over the house and engulf us....

Another closer view...don't be scared ...

This poem is from Kay Ryan, the new US poet laureate

THINGS SHOULDN'T BE SO HARD

A life should leave
deep tracks:
ruts where she
went out and back
to get the mail
or move the hose
around the yard;
where she used to
stand before the sink,
a worn-out place;
beneath her hand
the china knobs
rubbed down to
white pastilles;
the switch she
used to feel for
in the dark
almost erased.
Her things should
keep her marks.
The passage
of a life should show;
it should abrade.
And when life stops,
a certain space—
however small —
should be left scarred
by the grand and
damaging parade.
Things shouldn'tbe so hard.
