Charlie's Garden
Snow's melting on Black Butte,
The experts say.
It's time for a garden
Safe to plant away!
Tear open the packets
Clear out the weeds.
Spread the seed starter
And planting soil please.
DON'T EAT THAT!
And clean off your hands!
The dirt in your mouth
Is from far away lands!
Here, take your toy shovel
While I water the pots.
No! Not the dirt again,
Your face is covered in mud spots.
OK, chase that squirrel
While I move to the deck.
COME BACK HERE, YOU RASCAL!
The street is not for your trek!
Finally, a diversion
You've discovered a hole.
Now, can I please finish?
I'm on a role!
Wildflowers, Snap Dragon
Blanket Flower, Lavender Glo.
Basil, Chives, Thyme,
Rosemary, and Oregano.
Now, if you will finally please take a good nap
WILL YOUR FIRST FLOWER GARDEN ACTUALLY GROW?
(wish Charlie luck!)
