Spring Garden

My hand at vilanelle - Inspired by a da in my garden - trying my hand at the square foot method.

 

 

 

Drip- drip-splash, blue puddles - Spring.  

Mix and mash and plant the seeds

Sugar snaps, carrots, lettuce greens.

 

 

Blue birds posting  and crows convene

I dance ‘round and weed the weeds.  

Drip- drip-splash, blue puddles - Spring.  

 

 

Bending low a mushroom ring

Magic grow and perlite beads

Sugar snaps, carrots, lettuce greens.

 

 

Weatherman  watch the wren do  sing

Of retreating winter rattling

Drip- drip-splash, blue puddles - Spring.   

 

 

One,  four, nine, sixteen

 Drip drip drops a-pattering

Sugar snaps, carrots, lettuce greens.

 

 

 

Rising sunshine all aglow

Here and now is all I know  

Drip- drip-splash, blue puddles - Spring.  

Sugar snaps, carrots, lettuce greens.
