Seasons

Autumns here, not to cold Roses are still blooming Looking around I see lots to do Dead heading,weeding and pruning Bulbs ive bought for next year To pop their heads up here and there And the sweet pea seed pods Are drying in the air It's time to tidy up our plot With lots of digging too Weeds to pull, beds to hoe Lots of things will have to go You know you have to be a little brave If that roseyou want to save But you will learn that over time You have to be cruel Just to be kind The flower beds need a tidy Take all the dead stuff off the top Veg plotsbeing well dug over Waiting for next years crop Pruning back wayward branches Collecting seeds, next year to sow Burning up the collected debre Long gone are the neat vegies in straight rows The lawn will soon need it's final cut All the birds have flown their nests Must take down the nesting boxes To clean and get rid of pests September now with harvest moon Time will fly and very soon Christmas will be here I hear you cry And then its over In the blink of an eye And then ........ Springs around the corner With wondrous thing to see Bulbs popping up above the ground Giving joy to you and me And when all the hard works done You can sit back and be pleased Wind, frost, rain and sun You've grown all that you need The seasons cycle will start again And it will be time Seed catalogueat the ready More varieties to find Seeds to sow , hpoe they'll grow The lawn will soon need it's 1st mow The summer months to enjoy But really it's just a ploy It all starts again For another year For harvest festival Is here again for another year
