Thanks Roms, for visiting.

I find it interesting knowing the stories behind nursery rhymes.. I think that we can learn from many once we discover the history behind the rhymes. My little grand daughter loves for me to bounce her on my knee and sing Humpty Dumpty, She especially likes the falling down and swaying on my knee.The song has nothing to do with an egg falling off a wall… hmm this could be another post

I learned something from this post Carol.. the history behind the rhyme But there’s more, its the lesson behind the text and the sincerity it contained.

Hi, Kim, I miss chatting too, I see you on face book sometimes, maybe we can one day meet up on FB chat. The time difference gets in our way a little bit.. Thankyou for the invitation to borrow anything from your blog… it wasn’t me who had asked.

Hi Martin, you know you are right in saying some just don’t want to make peace..We can only be an example to them by setting examples of love and forgiveness.

Hmm.. I agree with you that we’ve got to come to an agreement and make all crooked relationships straight. But certain people just won’t come to an agreement ..even when you try all the possible ways to make peace with them. Lol

Nice post!

Martin.

Sylvia , I did actually get to read this poem to my dad, I don’t think he really understood it, but he did recognise his garden..My daughter Tanya read this at his funeral..

Mimmy, it is so very special looking forward to new flowers which grow each year. I remember back to when my mother in law passed away almost 20 years now, we found jars and packets of seeds everywhere, she was a keen gardener. After things had settled down the kids and I decided to plant them in one of my gardens ( I don’t have green thumb at all) They asked what would grow, I said only God knows, it will be a surprise. They called it God’s Garden.. it was a surprise and still today there are a few which still surprise me..

Thankyou Martin for your visit

This is a lovely tribute to your father. During my mother’s illness, my Daddy planted a garden just outside her bedroom window so she could look out at it. He still maintains it today even though she passed away in 2000. Every spring we look forward to the new flowers coming up through the ground. I’m quite sure that there are many fairies and gnomes lving amongst the leaves and stems and under the umbrella tops of the flowers.

God Bless,
Mimmy
