Outside the Garden


Like the Cheribim with flaming sword set to guard the tree, 
I have built a wall of brick to keep them from plucking at me.
On the other side of my father’s garden’s wall
I’ll ponder alone the world it’s inhabitants and all.
It will be learned with clarity and grace
The garden is more than merely a place.
The cherished fruit is sweet with pure love
Grown and shared by my family below and above.

Hi Its Kami (Farr)...now Ellsworth.
I found your blog today at work and I wanted to say hi! Man it has been so long and HOLY COW...you are freakin AMAZING! You look absolutely gorgeous and your are SO GIFTED!! I mean I always knew you had talent but WOW!!! And you have a beautiful family.
I loved seeing you and Gav in the pictures...brought back some good memories. You are so happy and so cute. Gavin looks exactly the same...always loved the bald head.
I'll have to show my Gav some pictures so he knows who he was named after! :)
Tell Gavin I said hello.
