More Gardening by Robert (Bob) Moore © 2015 The heat it just keeps rising, there’s a lot of work to do I’ve had enough of gardening, you could say that I am through but I’ve done what I had to do, no matter what you think and now I’m going to go inside, and get myself a drink So will I have a lemonade, or will I have a beer there’s lots of sharp tools still to use, I should keep my head clear I pour a glass of lemonade, no sparkle ‘cause its flat looks like it will just be the beer, so that’s the end of that At least, that is what I think, and then she comes inside the gardens looking lovely, she says, with lots of pride if you just bring the green bin round, we’ll clean up all the mess I think of lots of reasons not, and then I answer yes For my wife’s not just a quilter, she loves the garden too working with the flowers, pots, and fertilizer poo you don’t have to help me, she tells me, quite sincere I’ve fallen for that trap before, and say, I don’t mind my dear.
