Description
We have ALL heard the poem: “April showers bring May flowers”. The proverb has been traced back to about 1557. From Thomas Tusser and his writing collection “A Hundred Good Points of Husbandry 1557”; “Sweet April shower do spring May flowers”.
My earliest memories of the phrase has to be when as a toddler I “helped” in the garden with Grandma Bowman. I can still picture her in her housedress, stockings and black “Grandma shoes” bent over the proliferation of produce throughout the garden.
This piece reminded me of those days. Grandma didn’t always spend her time in the house. Though I remember things like standing on a chair at the sink to help wash dishes. And when she was cooking, you could smell the sweet aroma of her efforts throughout the house! But it was also in her garden that many of life lesson were being taught.
As an adult and much more time available to reflect on some of these “lessons”.cJust enough to spend more time on my graphics, cameras and art work.
“April shower bring May flowers”. Loosely translated I believe what ‘ole Grandma was saying was that “Something good will happen out of unpleasant events”.
Thanks Grandma!
