Fresh cut flowers adorn my home
Picked from this garden of mine
Many hours I spend in this wonderland
As I soak up the glorious sunshine

An abundance of activity
Goes on here within my yard
So many wonders of nature
You don't have to look too hard

The fairies stand so proud
Around the edge of the tranquil pond
As they are sheltered from the sun
By the arching tree fern frond

The blackbirds frolic in the birdbath
They seem to be having so much fun
As I sit here and write about my garden
Enjoying the warming rays of the sun

Many keepers I have in my garden
Beautiful statues made from stone
There are fairies, gnomes and wombats
And a cupid perched upon a dome

All my senses are awakened
In this garden paradise of mine
So many colors of the rainbow
As well as fragrances oh so fine

Long shadows now fill my garden
Soon a blanket of stars will fill the sky
As Mother Nature rests her weary body
And another beautiful day passes us by

Now you know I walked through your garden at Starlite, and now look at you!  Your garden is more beautiful and so is your writing.  This was simply beautiful, and your imagery was so clear Sue, I loved this.

Perhaps I'll take you up on your offer if I'm ever in that part of the world...  I'd love to see some pictures of it, in the meanwhile...

Oh, this is so nice. Expect to see me in your garden after two or three weeks of -40F. I'll warm my bones in that garden any day!
