A Country Garden

A Country Garden,
Down the orange brick path I walk
Pansy faces watch me pass by
Greeting snapdragons balance on stalks
In the distance a starling 's cry.

The Hollyhocks, Delphiniums and Foxgloves too
Carnations; Inpatients;Dianthus pink.
The Blue bells, Hyacinths and Lobelia blue
shoulder of Begonias link.

The Roses are graceful and tell
Peace; Deep secret; First love; Yabadoo.
A yellow Bansksia  climbs the wall
Dorothy Perkins; hot chocolate and Peekaboo.

Lots of hard work; energy and compost used
plus Blood and bone and friendly sprays
All reaped and reward a new
A view enjoyed on lazy days.
