Cat Plant

 "God Almighty first planted a garden. And indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures." -Frances Bacon

 Especially if a cat plants itself in a pot. It is meant to be.

 Day after day.......

 After day.....

 Does the cat grow roots?

 Or need to be fertilized? 

 Do other cats wish they could plant themselves....

 "We plant. GOD grows. "
                  -R. Allan Woods ( 2012) "The Journey is the Destination."

Rufous Hummer ever vigilant. Watches the cat.Buzzes at him like a bee.

 While the snow melts in the distant mountains.

 The Cat Plant curls this way and that. In the pot. On the porch. In the sun. In the shade.

 "There might be a place to meet nature half way...." -Michael Pollan

 The rain begins. Again. It always rains in spring. Feeds the seeds already planted.

 But the cat is dry . In the pot. In the dirt. On the porch.  He is content.

 And  the others come. To see this  wonder . In the pot. On the Porch.

 And time stands still for the Cat Plant in the  pot. Round like a gold dumpling.Happy in the dirt.

 "There are no gardening mistakes. Only experiments....."
                              - Janet Kilburn Phillips
