MY FLOWER GARDEN
By Patty Lynn
The flowers in my garden are
So beautiful
to see.
I wish
that when I talk to them
That
they’d talk back to me.
O, magic
garden fairy, come,
And wave
of your magic wand.
Make
flowers speak, no secrets keep,
From evening
until dawn.
I love my
flower garden, so.
Each flower
is amazing!
The
blossoms there, beyond compare,
Come at me,
colors blazing.
O, red,
red rose on prickly stem,
You
gorgeous flower of mine.
One look
at you and well I know
My day
will be just fine.
Dear daisy
with your petals white
And golden
center hue,
You show me
why each morn I sigh,
“Dear
daisy, I love you!”
Forget-me-nots,
with petals blue,
I can’t
believe you’re mine.
Your tiny
flowers smile back at me
And make
me feel divine!
My lilac
bush, so big and tall,
Each bloom
a lilac blue.
Your smell,
it is a fragrance, sweet
That lasts
the whole day through.
My tulips
are the first to come
In springtime
they arrive.
How
welcome after winter’s snow.
They make
me feel alive!
Daylilies are such sturdy blooms
In
crimson, orange and white.
Best not
decide to bring them in
They’ll
wither overnight.
Clematis,
you’re a funny one.
Your new
growth comes on old.
Can’t cut you
back for I will find
In spring,
no blooms unfold.
A lovely
one’s Lobelia,
In purple,
white and pink.
All by
yourself or with a group
You need a
daily drink.
Geranium,
geranium,
Grand,
hardy standing there.
The lacy
Martha Washington’s
My
favorite, to be fair.
Pert Pansies
always make me smile
Each morning
when you greet
It seems
you have a tiny face.
Your
varied colors treat!
So there
it is, fair garden, mine
In vivid
colors bright.
It takes
but one, one look at you,
To make my
heart take flight.
Your
beauty’s unmistakable.
No garden
quite so sweet.
Each
flower there that needs my care,
It makes my joy complete!
