Dedication


There are people in this world
whose dedication to
a personal passion
benefits the rest of us.
So it is in our community
where we have a group of neighbors
who call themselves
the Green Garden Group.
They have taken as their mission
the conversion of an acre of forest
surrounding our community center
into a wonderland of wild flowers
all carefully identified and labeled
and viewed from a path
through this mini-woodland.
They’ve included a pool
with tiny waterfall, as well as
a bog garden for
moisture-loving plants.
We live across the road
and have watched as these folks
have labored with the project,
working often seven days a week,
sometimes commencing their labors
as early as 6:30 or 7 a.m.
We suspect they love this work
and would do it even if
no one else enjoyed
the fruits of their labors.
But we do. Oh, we do.
