Worth (A Quatern)

My humble soul receives its worth
as hands caress the fertile soil.
A grateful earth rewards my heart
with gift of seed to tend and sow.

As saplings rise from 'neath the ground,
my humble soul receives its worth.
They seek nutrition from the sun
and thirst for April's sodden dower.

through tender care they thrive and grow
and in return they nourish me.
My humble soul recieves its worth
with every breath of pure grown air.

With every blossom's lovely bloom,
with every grass and tree that's green,
with every rose whose thorns do sting,
my humble soul receives it's worth

Yessum, as I stated, it's a good one, and I enjoyed it.
Isn't it nice to be able to post without finding just the right question to ask so it doesn't get deleted?

I love reading your work, as well as growing roses.
My yard:

Dondi, that's amazing...your yard is beautiful and I imagine there is even more to see.  How many roses do you have?  I have about 25 right now and I'm still looking for places to put more.  Gardening and roses are addicting, aren't they?  Thanks for showing me the pic...that's great.

Unfortunately, it is not my yard any more, that was the place I sold when I moved to Georgia.  It is in Steens, Ms. and the people I sold it to went through them with a grader and destroyed 900 hybrids, 29 climbers and trellises, and 40 rose trees, and tore down my greenhouse.  I went by there a few months ago, and there is 10 acres of grass, and a couple of shrubs next to the porch.  I hated what they did, but it belongs to them now.  I have 1 rose and some giant azaleas in my back yard now, and soon anticipate the addition of hybrids in the front yard, and some climbers beside the carport for additional shade and fragrance.  I don't plan to do it up so grand again.  I am too old to care for that many now, and besides, my city lot is only 5/8 acre.

Oops, this might be considered chatting..... call a reporting troll.
Then tell them "tough".
