Daylily Haiku Thursday | My old garden friend...

you must keep patching!    despite the holes in your path-  work is never done.

My favorite garden gloves are close to being retired.  My darling husband bought these for me about five years ago and I am sad to see them go.  I have worn holes through all the fingers in the right glove and the wrist fastener is gone on the left, but I just can't let them go.  I looked to replace them with the exact pair, but of course it's discontinued.  I'll have to find a new pair of gloves to wear out.

They have seen so much, hauled so much, traveled in other people's gardens so much and heard so much...

Hang those much loved gloves on a line or trellis and plant something in them to enjoy for another season or longer. Jacki Kropf
