Poem
World Nude Gardening Day 2025 You’re inappropriately dressed my dear My husband said to me. Don’t you know it’s World Nude Gardening Day I heard it on the radio, first Saturday in May And you’re out here fully clothed you see. I thought, Oh No, your smugly face, Your smile I will wipe off. You do not think that I will come out nude. So, quickly did I strip my clothes, went out to my backyard And stood there starkers, not at all subdued. When he saw me, he nearly choked, I’d really wiped his grin. I couldn’t let his challenge pass me by. Unbeknown to him I went inside, stripped off then to comply And that’s how this tradition did begin. We had a laugh, took some pics, On Facebook I did post. But when my sons both saw this, they then gasped And to this day every year, pray I won’t go out I know they hope today will be the last. Also, today we have to choose a brand-new government. Before I garden, I will need to vote. Perhaps I could just go down there in nothing but a coat But if it slipped off, face amercement. I will not let this interruption Spoil my gardening day. It really does not matter who will win. Because they promise us the world to lower inflation, But really can’t believe a word they say. No, I will stay at home in my yard My garden I’ll attend. There’s much to do like mowing, weed and prune. If I am quick with all these tasks, could finish them by noon Then to you all my pictures I can send. Because I know each year You want to see what I will do. And if I bring a smile to everyone Then that is what this day’s about, first Saturday in May World Nude Gardening Day for me is just for fun. Christine 3/5/2025
