Beautifully written! I had a full illustration in my mind as the words flew before my eyes! That, is how a story should be! Thank you for sharing with me! It reminded me of my childhood garden I built hidden in the edge of the woods where a spring came out of the ground and created a bubbling brook that flowed to the nearby river. I enjoyed remembering my garden... Thank you for stirring it up!
Thank you for that lovely feedback. I also had a garden in the country near a brook - there were violets in those woods :)
