The Summer Garden

The Summer Garden

The summer garden is full of delights

To brighten your days and enchant your nights

Roses and lavender mingle together

Sunflowers and beans climb as if to reach heaven!

A little red poppy blooms for a day

Just passing through but not here to stay

And yet on a new day there will be poppies galore

Death isn’t the end - but merely a door.

Gladioli and lupins blossom into tall spires

Sometimes at night I see on them – faerie lights!

Yellow Admirals and Monarchs dance on the breeze

And a dear little sparrow sings cause he’s free.
