A Poetic Day in the Glory of the Garden

Sing sweet notes, oh pure ebony birdAwaken the glory of the garden

In the dawn of a summers morning

Catch first rays, oh myriad of flowersReflect the glory of the gardenWith your rainbow filled display

Billow from capture, oh Egyptian sheetsFly in the glory of the garden

Release your fresh air of cleanliness

Throw water droplets, oh bubbling fountainCool the glory of the gardenIn the peacefulness of your pool

Seek the seductive nectar, oh Painted LadyPollinate the glory of the gardenAs you flit from flower to flower to flower

Purr in rhythmic sound, oh rolling bladeHighlight the glory of the gardenIn long swathes of alternating green

Parasol of leaves, oh Walnut treeExtend the glory of the gardenIn jade-speckled sweeping shade

Raise slowly to lips, oh china cupsRelax in the glory of the gardenComplimenting the lightness of sponge

Busy yourself in loyalty, oh worker beePenetrating the glory of the gardenIn servitude to your reigning queen

Run home from school, oh children threeRevel in the glory of the gardenIn tee-shirt, shorts and cotton dresses

Swoop in lightness, oh glossy swallowFeast on the glory of the gardenWith tail streaming agility

Fall sweet and soft, oh shower of rainRefresh the glory of the gardenWith purity of glistening silver

Sneak cautiously, oh red russet creatureVisitor to the glory of the gardenRelish the scattering hand of kindness

Snuffle the earth, oh spiny urchinFeeding from the glory of the gardenOn a plethora of invertebrates

Glide silently, oh ghostly birdAcross the glory of the gardenIn just a whisper of a breath

Hush now, oh sweet fragrancesDream in the glory of the gardenEmbrace the warmth of a summer’s night
