Gardenias and jasmine fill my senses As their fragrance floats along the breeze Such a perfume is so exquisite 'tho it sometimes makes me sneeze Surrounded by nature's beauty In another world am I As I admire the grace and beauty Of the birds as they fly on by My flowering gum tree is a haven For the rainbow lorikeets so fine As they sample nectar from my garden Their brilliant colors how they shine The smell of freesias fills my head As I inhale the perfume oh so sweet Then I head towards my birch tree To rest upon the garden seat The peacefulness here is so calming As I soak up the last rays of the sun Many more hours I'll enjoy in this paradise Where Mother Nature and I become one Suetang |

Oh, I really do love your garden! Freesias are my absolute favorite. They have the very best fragrance in the world...next to wysteria, roses, lavender, carnations, jasmine, mint and sage. My nose is all excited just reading this poem. Thanks! (Except gardenias make me sneezy and crazy.) I forgot about the honeysuckle ... also "heaven scent".

Hey Suetang, can you come over here and make my garden look like this, cause I've got a black thumb, and yours is obviously very green ![]() If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Now it's hard to appreciate the beauty of Fall when you keep reminding me of Spring and Summer. *grins* Splendid read! |

*sigh* I love gardens and you managed to bring it to live with your words. They are so descriptive that I could almost smell the beauty of it all. ![]() ![]() Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

The internet has made plain me something I always knew. Half the world is in a different season from me. Love spring, but Fall gives me less problems with sneezing too *S* Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |
