Ahhhh - Now I get it! I thought it was a typo! Is that a real term, or one you've coined? Maybe you should add another "n" as in perennials.
This makes me think of my flower garden...beautifully done

Like Crindaguitar, I thought it was a typo, but how wrong I was! This is really lovely stuff! I think that gardens are very feminine things to begin with, and you have gone from a really nice description of one, to something that suggests the
divine
feminine. I just love this.

Lovely poem:)
Thank you much. I did not like how the word looked with another "n". ANd the word is one I have coined I guess. Thanks for finding the poem lovely.

Plagiarism Alert
This poem was not authored by slippingaway, and I am very angry to have my original work misrepresented by someone who I considered a friend.
Thank you for the kind feedback all the same--I am glad that you all enjoyed it, in spite of the fact that it was posted without my knowledge, consent or acknowledgement. I have contacted the melswebs people re: removal of this poem, since I never authorized it in the first place.
The plagiarist, I will deal with in real-time. I hope. It would be nice to have an explanation, at least.
