My Porch Garden - Sq

My porch is lush with colored hues, I have white, pinks, purple and blues; love it in the early dawn hush, with colored hues, my porch is lush. Green herbs tumble from brown clay pots, my creeping jenny is in knots; bright wild blooms grow in a jumble, from brown clay pots, green herbs tumble. Oat grass grows for my kitty cat, nice to sit with friends for a chat; and often go there to compose, for my kitty cat, oat grass grows. Vines curl and unfurl here and there, people often look up and stare; such a serene place for this girl here and there, vines curl and unfurl. ________________________ June 8, 2020 Poetry/Quatrain/My Porch Garden Copyright Protected, ID 20- 1259-087-03 All Rights Reserved, 2020, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest Swap The Verse sponsor, Joseph May First Place
