The March Moon

By -

I've been reading that the March full moon is the Faery Moon. You are supposed to bless your garden in the moonlight this month.
I decided to google Yarn garden and see what came up. Lots of cute yarn boutique's are called the YarnGarden. If I renamed my blog it would be the Yarngardenblog....Hmmmm

I wrote a blessing for my garden in the spirit of the IRish Holiday:

Faery Moon Blessing

May the weeds be less
and the flowers be more
and all of the slugs and grubs hurry next door

May the rain fall, right, here
and the winds softly blow
and may all of the earthworms enjoy the below

May the rabbits eat elsewhere
and the butterflies come
and the sunflowers faces bask in the sun

May the moonlight come gently
and my friends wander near
and may fireflies light up the dark nighttime with cheer.



I WOULD LOVE YOU TO LEAVE A COMMENT>

I love the Irish blessing! Even a Faery Moon blessing wouldn't help my garden this year. This is one of those years when I need to just tear everything out and start over.

I don't have anything coming up in my garden yet, but it could be hiding under all the dead leaves.

Perfect garden blessing. Love it.

What a wonderful snowdrop picture. It's good enough to be framed and hung.

Happy St. Patricks Day!

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
