Welcome to my secret garden. This is an intensely personal site in that I include only items which are dear to my heart or have caught my attention in some way. The only theme is that which speaks to my soul. Nevertheless, I hope that a few kindred spirits will happen upon these paths and find here some space that will inspire them to stop and "smell the roses,"so to speak. You never know what surprises may lie beyond the next bend as we meander through the groves of my psyche. Come walk along in the garden with me and I will share with you some of my secrets. |

She'll let you in her house If you come knockin' late at night She'll let you in her mouth If the words you say are right If you pay the price She'll let you deep inside But there's a secret garden she hides She'll let you in her car To go drivin' round She'll let you into the parts of herself That'll bring you down She'll let you in her heart If you got a hammer and a vise But into her secret garden, don't think twice You've gone a million miles How far'd you get To that place where you can't remember And you can't forget She'll lead you down a path There'll be tenderness in the air She'll let you come just far enough So you know she's really there She'll look at you and smile And her eyes will say She's got a secret garden Where everything you want Where everything you need Will always stay A million miles away |

| The fact is that I did not know how to understand anything! I ought to have judged by the deeds and not by words. She cast her fragrance and radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from her.... I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her..." Antoine de Saint-Exupery |

| "Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough. Not only have I found that when I talk to the little flower or to the little peanut, they will give up their secrets, but I have found that when I silently commune with people they give up their secrets also - if you love them enough." -George Washington Carver |
