Natures Garden

Let me take you by the hand
and lead you through the gate,
I'll show you many wondrous things,
that nature did create.
For there are many treasures
in the garden to behold,
and if we tiptoe quietly,
its secrets will unfold.

Lets take a seat upon this log,
and see what we might spy,
a little lizzard darts away,
I think he's rather shy.
And over there a butterfly ,
has come to say hello,
I'll pick for you a dandelion,
now make a wish and blow.

We'll walk on through the flowerbeds,
their perfume fills the air,
'Whats that' you say, 'a lady beetle',
'Whoops' it's on your hair.
Let's peek into this sunflower,
What treasure do you see,
a busy little money spider,
weaving merrily.

A green frog jumps out of the pond,
right before our eyes,
he knows he must be quick now,
as he makes his lunch on flies.
We'll lie down on the soft green grass,
our eyes turned to the sky,
now what's that flying overhead,
why it's a dragon fly.

The buzzing sound of busy bees,
as they fly overhead,
to gather up the pollen,
to make honey for our bread.
The blackbird sings his pretty song,
high among the branches,
his warning us his nest is near,
as back and forward he dances.

So now I hope you realise,
the treasures you can find,
In mother natures garden,
come and visit anytime.
For nature is a wondrous thing,
we must not take for granted,
just take some time to visit her,
I'm sure you'll be enchanted.

Very well described Sue. I like it when I get to read a poem right through which is unusal for me and this held me.

Couple of spell check errors.

not sure about the rhyme branches --- dances but the ladies no doubt will tell me it is a female rhyme gets me everytime.


As I said a very nice piece.

opps Sue was in a hurry its you got me.

Been out doing a show and reckoned I would have missed Heathers 1000 post but it looks like she is playing it coy.


God knows what she is cooking up especially if she has been talking to Manfred he has a rare and unique sense of humour.


I refuse to be sent anywhere by someone who is not green ????

Hey Bob I'm green - I hug trees...just don't generally advertise the fact. tell everyone my favourite colour is pink
but in light of the good pics you posted your sentence is commuted - and I see Heather is back on deck anyway so I am no longer needed to try to exercise control and restraint.

Cute little poem Sue I could see you reading this to kids or granddies perhaps

Cheers

Sue i was talking to a guy at the markets and this is the type of poem he prints off and laminates with a bit of decoration then frames and sells them at the market.


You have a ready made market at the park I sell quite a few cds off the front counter. ?

Worth a try.
