Hamden, CT, United States
As a writer and poet living in Connecticut, I find my own poetic inspirations tend to arise from the wonders lurking in my garden. Join me as I explore the benefits of native gardens, search for everyday insights from the landscape and its many visitors and follow me as I craft my poems and enjoy the work of other poets and writers.

Weekend in Maine...


I had the pleasure of spending some time in Maine this weekend.  
Lot's of Red winged black birds.  
Gorgeous weather. Beautiful beaches. Delicious lobsters.  Friendly people.  

Meanwhile back at the house, the garden beds are planted.  
The irises and poppies are blooming.
