Outside Fun

Let's have some fun outside I'll plant some new flowers spruce up the tired summer beds so out I wandered into the garden Hunt high and low for my trowel can I heck find it, bet your ass no ok I will use a folk instead that is right close to hand Oh drats it's handle is cracked I can't use it like this so I search and finally find tape repaired I kneel down to work Only to find the soil far too hard so I fetch a spade from the shed backbreaking is the concrete ground I labour on thinking how nice it will be Taking a pause for a minute or two I suddenly realise that it's almost dark so much for not so well laid plans I have yet again squandered away the day
