Garden of seasons My garden is a cheerful place
In Spring when daffs and tulips race
To greet the lemon sorbet sun
Spring cleaned by showers, every one!
My garden in a lively place
In Summer when pansies fight for space
And shove aside my favourite fern
Unravelling in my posh new urn!
My garden is a pleasant place
In Autumn when crisp leaves upstage
Pansy, fern and potted plants
September sunshine ignores the damp!
My garden is a wondrous place
In Winter when snow and ice grace
Lawns and paths with virgin white
My garden then is pure delight! Betty Lightfoot
