The duckweed takes over
Exerting its power
A beautiful carpet
That grows by the hour
Froggy is cool underneath
His head out
But the rest of himh covered
In water no doubt
He is cool in the sunshine
Safe he can see
His tongues ever ready
And of course he is free
The moss tufts of yellow
Adheres to each stone
The wild brambles carry on
Clearly alone
To using their magic
To get them around
Discovering moon beams
And fresh bits on the ground
Each path through the rocksIs
Is a bit overgrown
VWith herbs all a tangle
They lower the tone
A bit as does herb Robert
Coming to an end
And lavender too
Whose everyone’s friend
G
A Rick pelargonium
Is doing well
Butterfly pink
With ak White flourish swirl
It dances a bit in the wind as we see
A lot more buds growing
Now more earnestly
The faeries our often
Riding on high
On the dragon fly nymphs
That are in the sky
Of aquamarine and the most
Verdant green
At this magical place
There’s so much to be seen
