THESE PICTURES WERE TAKEN BY ME OF MY GARDEN

* * * * *

There are roses and pansies
So much color do I see
Such beauty all around me
What a lovely place to be

I meander past the tree ferns
As new fronds begin to unfurl
In my garden I descend
Into my fantasy world

As I bask in the sun
And enjoy its warm rays
Summer is finally here
With its lovely long days

In amongst my birch trees
I'm at one with my thoughts
Such a great place to go
When I'm feeling out of sorts

Jasmine and gardenias
So exquisite are their blooms
With a perfume heaven sent
All above me it looms

So much beauty to behold
And with so much joy do I see
That nearly all of this beauty
Was created lovingly by me

A favourite place to be at peace
So much joy does this garden bring
A place where I reflect on my memories
Where I admire the birds as they sing

The shadows are now growing longer
And I must leave this paradise
I have chores to be done
Which are not so nice

I'll leave with a smile
But very soon I'll return
Where so much beauty can be found
At each and every turn

Sue I love the statue and your flowers. There appears to be a Japanese maple in amongst the flowers. Fabulous.
Here in New England, my perennials are just popping out of the ground and it's so exciting. I just adore Spring. Thanks for sharing with us.  Marti

Sue,
How awesome. It appears you posed for an artist. How long did that take? Love the poem, the garden and the house. Cool! Nice job on all of it. Lot's of garden work there though.

Sue:  What a treat to see your beautiful garden today.  It is only 40 degrees here and a cold wind.  I have only one lonely daffodil in bloom!  Thanks for sharing.

I'm so glad I stopped by the garden~
Your words are in fragrantly in bloom ...
