My flower box has three thriving weeds growing in it. Nothing else. My peppermint, basil, and lavender are still dry and dead from last fall. And though my chives have sprouted their purple flowers, it just doesn't change the sadness my garden-lack brings me.
Last week I even tried drawing a sun, moon, and stars on my steps with my sidewalk chalk to cheer the place up a bit. But then it immediately began to rain and washed it all away.
I crave summer beauty. I feel lost without it.
