I Sat In My Garden

I sat in my garden sipping freshly brewed coffee
Gazing at the wall of tall cypress trees
Such peaceful feeling surrounded by greenery and fragrances

Purple lavender swaying in spring morning breeze
Burgundy roses answered by bouncing their smiley faces
I sat in my garden sipping freshly brewed coffee

The birds perched on the neighbor’s pepper trees
Chirping and echoing each other’s songs of love
Such peaceful feeling surrounded by greenery and fragrances

Bundles of green grapes waited patiently to be ripened
The weight of the growing plums bent the branches
I sat in my garden sipping freshly brewed coffee

A hummingbird flapped his wings sixty times a second
Sustained himself dipping the long beak into the nectar
Such peaceful feeling surrounded by greenery and fragrances

A family of lizards roamed on the ground and the walls
Colorful butterflies danced The Blue Danube of Johann Strauss 
I sat in my garden sipping freshly brewed coffee
Such peaceful feeling surrounded by greenery and fragrances
