Like a wild hog

They removed all of the hogs from an island that was to be made into a national park. They said the hogs disturbed the environment. And the hogs did root things up. However, there was nothing sweeter than to see a sow with a string of piglets in tow.

I rooted up my garden this weekend. Pruning, transplanting, moving large pots. Overturned soil- a pig in the garden. Panic and chaos began catcalling -- ultimately silenced by a strong, sobering cup of coffee. Time, sun and rain are the healing salves for most all of my mistakes in the garden.
