Garden

By: Melbourne

Drip drip dewdrop,

Flies buzz away.

Crunch crunch, stick snap,

Eyes peering at me.

Sun-light comes in,

banishing the darkness away.

Oh, the wonders stored

right before me.

As the water passes through,

frogs and toads emerge.

With dragonflies passing by,

and splendid butterflies too.

Prancing about and showing off

their awe-striking patterns.

Suspended with gaiety,

those lil’ goofy things.

Life is renewed,

the ‘sphere is alight.

With baby birds, bunnies,

and little frogs too.

Curious creatures,

exploring the world,

with bliss and excitement.

Enjoying life’s bounties

Nature blooms brightly

with its vivid coats.

Pelts of green, blue, purple,

dotting the whole land.

The bees abuzz,

full of life and chitter

The true peacekeepers,

keeping flowers in check.

Strong rays barge through,

and sizzling heat intrudes.

Life then shrivels up

and the world is doomed.
