A Poem Lovely As a Garden

My beautiful spring fresh flowers,
Budding after a rain showers.
Pretty butterflies are flying,
Flower to flower are spying.
The fountain was filled with water,
Did I see a swimming otter.
All the tall green weeds I must pull,
Now I have another bagful.
I am so tried and very hot,
All flowers are out of each pot.
Time to rest with a cup of tea,
Watch out here comes a yellow bee.
