Calling the Wild Mother
When the bucket seems half empty
Instead of half full
Enchanteur comes to Baba’s Garden and
Calls the wild mother.

Now Darling when you are calling “The Wild Mother” make sure you have a pair of secateurs in your hand ,nothing heals the heart more than a good trimming of plants that need some extra energy for there growth …………….
Its love this Poem from 1st March 2001.
Regeneration ( By Fran I think)
**************
Chop off the wilted bit
when the cycle ends
Cut it back
Ruthlessly
The stump will heal sooner than you think.
If you don’t pick at it.
Let healthy new growth sprout and cover the scar
Don’t regret and look back
Leap foward in a new direction
Snip weak tendrils out so the strongest can strengthen
If you nuture with love
They’ll blossom ,bear fruit.
Harvest the fruit
Take pride in its perfection
Acknowledge your success
Preserve some for winter
Start a new growing cycle.
However wrote this ,at the time for me I loved it
It struck at a part of my heart to help it heal.
