Dahlias were dead at first fall frost,
\nall but the tuberous roots were lost.
\nCleaned, sorted and stored in the dark
\ntheir future surely seemed quite stark.<\/p>\n

But shortly after Easter Day

\nwith soil, light and water they grew
\nup through the soil in a week or two.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

By Victoria Day they\u2019d moved outside,
\nsoon in the garden with stakes to guide.
\nSome were in bloom by the end of June,
\nthe rest will be showing very soon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gardener stand back and be awestruck!
\nNot your doing and not just luck.
\nSummer\u2019s blooms are a gift of grace,
\ntheir bursts of colour to Eden trace.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Their victory over winter\u2019s tomb,
\nsings out through every bloom.
\nA song for times we can\u2019t cope
\ncalling us all to live in hope.<\/p>\n

Grace and Peace<\/p>\n
