What is there not to love!

Don’t you dare!
My garden
–
I could sit here in my garden
all my waking hours
simply entranced
by the profusion
of the flowers.
–
Clouds of blue wisteria
float above my head
and Aquilegia pink and mauve
frame where the birds are fed.
–
Pansies almost tumble
from my unruly pots
and spring bulbs left to sleep awhile
obscure for-get-me-not.
–
The cherry blossoms sprouting
before the bluebells fade away
and roses gather all there strength
to make a good display.
–
The passion flower is teasing
the ivy round the tree
lily of the valley
share their scent with me.
–
I could sit her in my garden
all my waking hours
simply entranced
by the profusion
of flowers.

One of my early poems written in my garden in London. I created our garden in Brighton on similar lines, even if the wisteria has taken ten years to bloom! Our marionettes are always interfering obviously!
