Garden

Growing vegetables
A scarecrow
Rabbits hopping
Digging holes
Everybody helps
Nests for birds

My Garden of Many Colors

A beautiful garden
Is my secret place
With the winds blowing
In my face.
Swish, swish, whoo, whoo.
Lilies, roses, pansies too,
Colors, colors mixed with the blue
Sky, lifting up high
Over my beautiful garden,
My secret place.

My Garden of Many Flowers

Roses are as pretty as the sunset.
Violets are as blue as the sky.
If you combine a rose and a violet,
They'll make a pretty night sky.

Lilies are as white as a t-shirt.
Tulips are as red as an apple.
And they're both like a pink lily.
Asters are as purple as a dress.

My Garden

My Garden.
A perfect Place.
Peace, Serenity.
Where Roses, Pansies
Smile up at me.
Beautiful Place,

Go walking and

Talking with

Love ones.
My Garden.
My Perfect Place.
