Notes About The Poem

My Bonny Blooms-Nursery Rhyme

My bonny blooms, grew up to the housetop.
When I watered them daily, they grew nonstop!
They rose very fast, for they love orange sun,
So red, gold and pink, and loved by everyone!

The birds sit high singing, thinking they are trees,
Bouncing on my bonny blooms, in a warm breeze.
Purple butterflies fly higher, just to see them all.
My garden's pretty now, like a bright blue ball!

My pretty blooms or my beautiful blooms sounded banal to me, so I thought of 'my bonny that lies over the ocean.' :0 Thanks for your appreciation, Gershon. :D

Thank you so much, Eve. Your contest was a delight! I have no doubt that nursery rhymes stimulate small children's learning skills, and their imaginations. Thank you for the invitation to your blog. Have a nice evening. Blessings, Evelyn

Hi Evelyn, You've penned such a good “ nursery rhyme” poem. Your imagery is on point. It introduces the little one’s to gardening too. They will just love it. Best wishes in the contest:-) Alexis

Hi Alexis, Eve's contest has given me the opportunity to write nursey rhymes-which I always wanted to try. I'm enjoying it very much. I'm sure many of us remember the nursery rhymes that called to our hearts and imaginations when we were young-and they still inspire us! Thank you so much for your kind words and well wishes. :D Evelyn
