My Enthusiastic Garden

A variety of fragrant lilacs in the ground Purple and white asters, doilies in baby joy pink. Prettier flowers in a garden are rarely found My bird baths are used by cardinals and one blue jay I think Verdant grasses are moist when I walk my land as I must Sun glows her happiness on my back as I adventure. Clover is enticing the bunnies and deer with her crust. To the beautiful Queen Anne’s lace I must bow and demure. Faeries disguised as butterflies, dragonflies, and bees Lamb’s ear’s velvet softness rises from the bowels of the earth. Dive bomb me any way and direction they so please. The laughter of the brownies cause a great deal of mirth. Enthusiastic garden shows off my miraculous way Of loving plants so much most of them clearly want to stay.
