A Garden Of Pride |

My camelias are an absolute picture Their petals strewn all over the ground Out here in my back garden A multitude of color can be found The roses only flower infrequently As Winter is drawing near But the birds still sing in harmony I never tire of the songs I hear My bouganvillias are still in flower On my back fences I have two One is magenta and one is crimson How much they compliment this view My garden is a rainbow of color With so many fragrances sure to please Jasmine would be one of my favourites Although it always makes me sneeze I have many keepers of my garden Statues of stone amongst the blooms The aroma of citrus here is plentiful All around me this fragrance looms I never tire of the scene before me Of this beautiful paradise so fine Countless hours I've spent in this garden And I'm proud to say that it's all mine * * * * * For those of you who may not know, it is nearly Winter here in Australia which I know must be strange for you to try and imagine as you are moving towards Summer.As I write this I have the heater on and it is cold and very miserable outside.

I shall find a flower and send it to you soon I shall pick a rainbow to drape upon yon moon and then I will do my best to give you another reason to be glad of winter and get you through the season |

Sue: I guess we all need a little winter in our life every year to make us appreciate the summers even more. Your garden is wonderful I know from the pictures you've shared and it will be again! Betty Lou Hebert |
