Planting Pleasure!

By the pricking of my thumbs

Spring is here – forget the Glums:

Birds chatter gaily as I pass

Wee daisies poke up through the grass!

 

Hedge-trimming: local Commune’s task

There’s spring in my step – at last!

Gloves and scarf get packed away

Sunshine warms my face today!

 

Crowds through local nurseries flow

More gardens in full colour glow;

I plant pert pansies in new soil:

They perk up and reward my toil!
