of working a farm,
feebly realized
in this backyard patch
of basil and mint?

Ha! :)
And I agree with Bill. A backyard patch of basil and mint sounds like heaven right now.

Spring! On branches of greens it is more, than in pockets!

thanks.
well, I DID have a tiny, scraggly herb garden. but the mint and basil (and other stuff) died - everything but the large, lopsided rosemary bush.

Basil and mint sound an interesting combo though! ;-)
