Simply Beautiful

BUDS burst into blossoms BLOSSOMS attract BEES BUTTERFLIES add beauty To the bountiful bouquets Of botanic brilliance While BIRDS balance on branches By my babbling brook With beaks beaming As a blustering breeze blows A profusion of pretty PETALS Away down the path Of my peaceful garden 30 July 2020
