The perfect day for it! I rejoice that they are at last wed in the sight of the Shire!

Author Reply: At last! And at least Pippin's betrothal was not so long as his liege's! LOL!

I begin the day at SoA. This morning the next place I went was GardenWeb.

So IMMEDIATELY after I read your four dribbles, the first thing I saw was someone’s post of a crazy, camp-y ad “1 in 5 teenagers will experiment with farming. Know the warning signs of farming.”

Or, as the guy who posted it commented, “I found heirloom seeds in your room. We need to talk.”

and that made me think about my own childhood, where I learned to garden when I was two and my brother was born and they sent me to my grandparents for two months, and my grandmother taught me to garden.

And the next thing I knew, I had written a huge long POEM in response about that part of my life ... and all the crazier garden stuff I’d done since then ...

and I have come back here to tell you my reputation among the heirloom tomato aficionados is TOTALLY RUINED

(yeah: like it wasn’t already)

and it is ALL YOUR FAULT.

So even though I never quite know what to say about something as brief as a dribble, I have come back here to say that good poetry inspires poetry.


Author Reply: Thank you! I am glad you found my dribbles inspiring.

Now I want to see your poem about gardening!
