"My Garden, My Little Piece of Heaven" is a beautiful, thoughtful gift for someone who enjoys gardens and nature. Gardens bring such beauty to our lives and offer a refuge from the frenetic pace of modern life. They provide a welcome oasis of colour, of life, in our increasingly crowded and concreted cities and suburbs. They're places to enjoy, to spend a little precious time in, and to find some peace. Our own little piece of heaven on Earth.
With beautiful photographs of many different types of gardens and plants, "My Garden, My Little Piece of Heaven" reminds us of the joys of constant creation and seasonal change. Gardening or just sitting in a garden can be mood-lifting, with green shoots emerging in spring, joyful colours in summer and the riot of rich colours in autumn. Gardening and being in nature are well known to help with the achievement of inner peace. It is the purest of human pleasures and therapy for many. Accept the forces of nature and let your garden feed your soul.
A gardener always has hope. The leaves have fallen, the earth is bare, the flowers are gone, leaving mere sticks behind. But gardeners have learned patience and hope from long experience. Spring lies only just below the frosted ground.
