In my white wicker chair Is where I now sit The air is quite cold But I don't care one little bit From the left I hear water So soothing is its flow To my right I see my tree fern It's leaves moving to and fro Underneath, my grecian goddess Has maiden hair fern around her waist As I reach for a sip of my coffee And savour its rich and delicate taste I see a dove amongst the dewy grass Pecking at the bread I left this morn It is only a few hours ago That the day began to dawn The wooden spiral moves so slowly Back and forth in the breeze The scent of wattle and gardenia Almost makes me sneeze My garden is such a treasure Opened by the garden gate A place you can so very easily Lose track of time and date Many a day I have come here A place for me to hide Oh, how very happy am I At this place where I reside Suetang |

True, one needs a special place to be happy. Mine is in my garden too, where, at this time the first rose begins to bloom (Canary Bird) and soon being followed by 200 more, till winter puts them to sleep again. |

Nate Thank you for your kind words.........Sue Titia I bet your garden is so very beautiful at this time of year as you go into Spring. My garden, here in Australia, still has plenty of color, even though we are well into Autumn now. Thank you......Sue Suetang |
