This is my garden  created by me

Just plain and simple as you will see

A few shrubs and flowers and occassional bee

And all the beautiful birds that come visit me


It's a place I can go to relax and unwind

A little piece of heaven that I call mine

Full of dreams and visions and hopes of a kind

A place with some color as you will find

 

 I find it  relaxing and pretty to see

It's a place for you and a place for me

Not a grand garden but means alot to me

Plain and simple and the view is free

 

I plant what I find thats pleasing to the eye

some do really well some curl up and die

It's a place of joy and a place to go and  hide

A place  to go when I need a good cry

 

Started off with not much not even a plan

But proud to say it's my little piece of land

I hope you give advice when I need a hand

Come stroll with me my gardening friends
