The Plants In My Garden

I feel sorry for the plants in my garden,
when summer comes to an end,
and fall begins…
A lot of people feel fall is a glorious time…
a time when nature dresses in her finest,
a time when she digs deep into her wardrobe,
pulls out her most colorful gowns,
and for a few days
explodes in celebration…
That's true for trees,
I suppose…
But,
the plants in my garden,
they look so sad,
all droopy and dull…
At times
when they shiver beneath thin blankets of October frost
I think I even hear them crying…
whimpering from the cold…
weeping because the sun will no longer share his warmth…
It is a quiet, melancholy time for them and me.
I visit often…
silently stooping…
gently touching…
listening…
Then winter comes,
and they're gone.

I love gardens and gardening. I always feel sad when fall comes and the garden dies down... I know it is just the way of nature in many geographic areas, but it still is kind of depressing.
nicely done!
