Y our fragrance is such a delight

X ylophone I play in my garden tonight

W eeping willow trees

V ery elegantly stand

U nderneath azure blue skies

T he breeze is so soft and cool

S erenely a robin sings

R efreshingly taking a bath and

Q uenching his thirst in the rain's

P uddle left from the storm the night before

O n top of the roof of a large red barn he made his

N est and soon he will be a proud parent

M y garden is filled with such an amazing amount of wildlife

L ovely birds and flowers galore

K eeping it up is quite a chore

J asmine tea I sip as I relax in my garden's gazebo

I often come here just to daydream in this wonderful place

H omegrown vegetables are as fresh as can be

G ifts to my family and friends especially from me

F lowers of every kind and variety grow here you see

E veryone that visits my garden compliments me

D aisies surround my rock water-fountain

C herry blossoms are so delicate in my yard this time of year

B lueberries taste so down right delicious they melt in your mouth

A garden of heavenly delight all of my own I share with you tonight

Well done! Love this imagery and the way this work flowed.

Awe...makes me want to visit your garden or one like this. The weeping willow and the gazebo did it for me. I don't know if you have seen the Thomas Kinkade paintings, but when I think of the PERFECT garden, that is what I think of you. You have painted a LOVELY portrait here Deb and your imagery is breathtaking. Thank you for sharing...Carole

It's good! Although these phrases weren't as blended as some of your other ones, they all added to the poem nicely and described each section of the garden uniquely. I got a dream-like feel from it all, like the garden you were describing was part of Mount Olympus or Eden. Thank you for sharing this.

Well done. I felt like I was sitting there with you. You painted a wonderful picture of a garden that sounded like it could be Eden. In fact I could smell the Jasmine and taste the blueberries. Your use the alphabet style show great talent. Another wonderful one. Excellent work.
