A Plot of Earth

#Garden #plants #flowers #vegetables

I.

It begins quite simply

a small bed of soil

home for your favourite plant

brightening up your view

or maybe making summat tasty

II

Early plants from seed

take a bit of time

but given a bit of time

water and food

the little seed rises

saying “Hello”

III

Fruits and vegetables

need support

as they grow – and

up supporting canes

their arms do grow

IV

Is it a rainbow

seen in front of my eyes

no – its flowers in bulbs

that do rise

to my eyes surprise

V

Something for Tea?

fresh from the boarder

served up as a lovely salad

and for afters ?

Apple Pie

      Right Now, Mihran the Acer tree is beginning to bud, resting by the two evergreens. Get Winter out of the way and there will be some lovely pink foliage.
