Showing Off My Flower Garden

My garden has bellflowers, globe flowers and cornflowers too I spend many hours weeding the rows, making it look new Sometimes a pretty renegade violet sneaks in, what can I do? I leave her unviolated, she adds a gorgeous splash of blue. My neighbor old Cyrus brought me some bulbs of iris today. I will plant them in fall; it is not time for them to make their way. He said, “Your marigolds are so beautiful, ruffled and gay!” Uplifted my mood, showing Cyrus my flower garden today. Your bleeding heart is so gorgeous! He said. What is your trick? He is right; she is the quintessential flower, fluffy and thick. She was a start from my great Grandmother, Molly McNick. She was an Irish wizard, who could grow a flower in brick. You have inherited her green thumb, Old Cyrus told me. Your Queen Anne’s lace and daisies are a pleasure to see. I felt happy that he did nothing to disturb my busy bumble bee. Many winged creatures aid in my garden of ecstasy Written 6-5-2022 Contest: Posie Poetry Contest Sponsor: Emile Pinet
