dreamed of her garden …
she tinted the ground around
with fantastic forms
her garden

This was a dream of my ex-wife Cynthia (Cindy) Ertner. She’s always loved gardening, and has created many fine gardens.
In the dream her garden included areas, subtly curved, of ground that had beautifully tinted designs. They were subtle, not garish and had a definite Buddhist influence, which you might expect if you knew her. It was a fantastic experience, even though “just” a dream.
She and I met in art school many years ago, and of course, she is a highly creative person. She could certainly make a garden such as this happen. :)
This one stands out out me
I had to put on my rose coloured glasses after reading it………………… :)
Have a great Friday

It was quite the dream, that’s for sure. Of course Cindy is extremely creative, visually and verbally. I would love to see a wordpress blog by her. I might again try to get her interested.
She started college in theater so she knows all about that art form. And she spent years in art school so she knows all about visual art, too.
Then she went on to grad school in English, so she can write! I’m sort of in awe of her. Well, not sort of – a lot in awe of.
Seems so magical to me !! I love it :)
Yes, it was quite a dream. I’ve written other haiku about Cindy. Oh yeah, she and her daughter are both red heads, by the way! haha They are awesome women, you would like them, I’m sure.
They live in Austin, and have for a few years. The schools are much better there, for Ashleigh.
