Garden Fantastic

I walked out to see my garden's beauty Looking for vibrant colors to see But before I could look he was all over me Stung fourteen times by an angry bee I was looking at a butterfly fluttering by But a Blue Jay snatched it out of the sky I transplanted a couple of ferns nearer to me That turned out to be poison ivy I stopped at some sweet blossoms to smell But the mosquitos and chiggers were biting like hell I also set out some vegetable plants Soon they were carried away by the ants I had a bagful of promising seeds But what came up were aggressive weeds Then I noticed a bunch of holes Seems now my garden hosts a colony of moles I won't let this garden get the better of me It's now a great beauty for all to see My new garden is quite fantastic For now it's all made of plastic Petal, buds, blossoms, bees, birds, butterflies!
