Begining To Look Like Spring

Got up to a glorious sunny day, Spent most of it in the garden. Clearing the winter weeds away, New life was begining to show. Strimmed off the Secret Garden, Saw the ground cover plants exposed. Some plants are coming along nicely, Their names only Heaven knows. Went round to the front to help Fran, We're both doing the best that we can. Forty odd pots either flowers or seeded, Summer will show if we have succeeded. Still lots of work for tomorrow, Dead shrubs and rubbish to throw. All the chairs now have their cushions, For folk to come and rest at their ease. Our home is always open, A nice cup of coffee or tea. Cold beer will always suit me, Your welcome to come and see. © Dave Timperley 06 March 2017

Hi Dave, I wrote it to accompany a set of photo's as I was getting the outside ready for Spring and the words just sort of drifted into mind. A lot of my poetry is like that. -15? Where are you Canada? Our freezer is warmer than that ! Thanks for your comments. God Bless. D.
