So for all those who have been enjoying Leslie's Poetry, Clean Up, and Fenging....It just so happens we are in the same town and we decided to meet at the garden for a Lovely Tour.
I arrived at the property at 3:13pm -(*wink*)14 minutes early. I came in and saw the most incredible birthday cake for R one of the younger residents of the House. A, a great gal with blond hair, and of the same *era* as me had just baked and decorated the cake with the most beautiful flowers from the Enchanted Garden.
Leslie had to do something with the next 14 minutes so A and I entertained ourselves and had a good time together. Leslie appeared clipboard in hand for notetaking and began the tour.
There were Jobs Tears, sweet oranges with gorgeous blossoms in all sorts of states of erotic transformation, Meyers Lemons, varieities of rosemary, varieties of geraniums, varieties of roses, and Old, Old, Bamboo that had actually protected the house from fire. After connecting with the bamboo that survived the fire I felt that it was positively zinging with vibrations-interesting experiment-Thanks Leslie.
The back of the Garden, which is terraced and has many areas for vegetables and still more for herbs, was vast and wild-with sitting areas terraced down the slope of the canyon. So much potential! Beautiful flowers interspersed with native fauna and flora, roses growing, mosses in the darker forested areas, cherry blossoms -a *plethoria* of plants. This is a work in progress.
The real goldmine was inside the house, OH! The people were so great. R, A, S, D, Leslie (of course), H(eh?), and T and ...? Oh I am so sorry I can see you face right now! He is the newest resident and I apologize!
What fun the birthday celebration was, homeade raw foods and some cooked veges (I had the honor to help Ana chop her salad stuff-small rectangles or squares please hahah), and homemade songs, Beautiful homemade cake with real *sugar* (ohoh), and Heather did a beautiful vegan cake and a salon after supper-A Salon on clearing Clutter-but as all conversation it took on many shades with our Leslie facilitating. I must Thank You Leslie for sharing your wonderful people with me. I LOVED, loved, loved it!
What fun-so I say my Thank yous to Leslie for his Enchanted Garden Tour, and for all the lovely human beings that inhabit the house that the Garden embraces.
:-) I think if you have not seen Leslie's site and beautiful poetry-take a tour! Poetry happens to be a hobby of mine, so I am partial to poets!
His Curezone blog is named "Plant Your Dream", and has some very touching personal posting and poetry.
Thank you very Much
