Cinderella Goldenrod
CINDERELLA GOLDENROD
The June garden is overflowing with summer colour.
The dresses are gorgeous. The Prince is dazzled.
In the corner, Cinderella in drab green looks sad;
But the clock ticks. In August, the Prince of the Sky
Will see her clusters of emberglowing yellow flowers.
She’ll be the belle of the ball.
………………………………………………………………………………………
Note. All gardeners love the bright, late showing of Goldenrod, after the other flowers have gone.
