In the Beginning

In the beginning,
God created in me a formless hunger
to share the mysterious peace and pleasure
that fill me in the garden.

A book? Overwhelming.
A column? Demanding deadlines.
Personal journaling? Lonely.

Then I met blogging,
and "In the Garden" was conceived.

It begins in personal journaling,
offers me a column without deadlines,
and may morph someday into a book.

It's spring. I've begun clearing last year's leavings and sewing seeds.

And, this year, I've also launched a blog.
