IF
If I had a garden,
it would have lavender growing all along the path right up to the front door
and roses growing over an archway.
If I lived in a house,
the front door mat would have the word 'WELCOME'
written on it.
There would be a different wreath for every season on the front door.
If I had a big kitchen,
I would invite everyone for breakfast or tea
with a gingham tablecloth on the big wooden table
with tantalizing smells coming from the oven or the stove!
BUT
where I live now, I have a balcony and flowers and always a cloth on my table
and a wreath on my front door.
I have organic coffee or herb teas for any visitor coming this way
and I don't have backache
from bending down gardening!
I'm still on the lookout for a front-door mat which has
WELCOME
written on it,
Life is as it is
Life can be good in all circumstances
We just need to recognize them!
