Gardens Are My Passion I am easy going and happy just being together with a special someone, sharing the moments, respecting each other's thoughts, dreams and wishes. Talking about anything of interest. Maximizing the positive and minimizing the negative.

My garden had hundreds of roses and I planted over 1, 000 annuals per year so it was a sea of intense color. My woman would love them and make fragrant bouquets for the home. Lilies in the bathroom, roses in the kitchen, and a mix in the living room.

I love to hold hands, to gently stroke a woman's arm to get her attention, to whisper in her ear, feel her breath on my neck as we dance. A woman to me is the highest form of art. I love to watch the play of light on her face as I take her to a view restaurant and the shadows drift down her neck and body as she gazes into the distance.

Intelligence and grace, poise and directness attract me. I love positive people and have no time for negative ones. My friends and role models are artists, professors, healthcare practitioners, and shell collectors. I have known garbage collectors and doughnut shop owners with PhD's but my heros are often the guys that fix my cars. All people are worthwhile unless they prove themselves otherwise.

It is people that make the world go round and the world is full of good people if you look for them. My relationships have enriched me in many ways. I have been terribly hurt by controlling women and incredibly loved and inspired by my late wife, an artist and musician. Women need to be cherished, encouraged, loved and regarded as one of the ultimate expressions of God's artistry.

I adore good music. I love to turn off all the lights and listen to every nuance of a recording. I enjoy the concert and theater too.

We'd be holding hands or dancing in the dark closely as the world turned beneath our feet. Poetry is true love.

It would be wonderful to share my love of gardening and my life with a like minded woman.
