MY GARDEN
You should see the seeds
I threw
They sprouted even before
I knew
Really, it’s me who
They amaze
I took care of them
And watered them every two days
Now I’m not the only one
Who tends gardens just for fun
The Sun, does its job
Of shining its light
Wow! Its really pretty
And shines real bright
The worms in the soil
Dig dig dig
They make plants grow
Big big big
Last but not least the rains
We shall thank for,
They water our plants
After all why not take advantage of a down pour?
All these things are what
My plant will need
To grow even bigger
and give more yield.

Thanks for the poem. Here is West Texas, rain is rare and we have been experiencing drought for years.
We do plant and nurture trees. There are no trees out side of town, except a former farm house might have a surviving tree or two (rare). Our landscape is semi-desert. almost no vegetation, or any water sources. Water wells for some.
I do have success with sun flowers. We mostly have water rationing and my water bill is $185.00 a month or more 8 months of the year.
Be grateful for God's favor and blessings, in Jesus name, amen.

What a sweet poem. I was surprised the author is eleven years old. That’s a very nicely done poem.
A+ for Emily Grace!

I Am a Flower
by PrissyMissy
May, 2011
I am a flower with very little power.
I wait for water as the day goes by.
If sunlight dies, then so will I.
I am not much you see,
A simple flower I'm yet to be.
I watch the time fly by
like the bumblebees and butterflies.
I can not move you see,
because my life started out as a tiny seed.
I am a flower.
