Come walk in my garden with me
The morning sun is high in the sky
Indian summer has blessed us
With another lovely day.
The rose bushes are still in bloom
I have a perfect yellow rose for you
Smell the heady fragrance, exciting the senses
Move closer to me so that I might join you.
Sit with me on my park bench surveying
All that I have prepared for you to see
The garden is in full bloom, soon to drop
Their petals to give way to autumnal splendor.
Fall flowers will soon replace the faded blooms
Bright yellow mums, oranges and reds galore
Shrubs grown tall, alive with red berries
All beautiful, a feast for the eyes.
As the grass grows brown and void of summer green
And light snow falls gently on the ground
I will turn my mind to spring gardening
When the earth comes into it's own again
Bringing forth cool spring breezes as restorative
Rains fall to nurture mother earth once more
Bringing nature back to the beginning of the cycle
When once again I plan my summer garden.
