Garden Gates are Meant to be Read

  Do you know why the gate, below, has its styling?

.

 Think chickens.  

.

This gate was designed to keep chickens from wandering away.

Several times I've been hired to open a hedge at the front of a woman's garden.  In each instance a couple of plants were removed, a gate installed, a path added, creating a new entry to the front of the home.  Flow, open, welcome, beauty where there had been a hedge saying, 'Keep Away'.

.

Welcome vs. Keep Away

.

Most often, when I'm hired, the metaphors in the client's life/garden are dripping significance.  I'll say the obvious and get back, How did you know?

.

You know exactly how I know.  Easy to see another's life metaphors.  It's our own dancing behind clouds.
