Array ( [sid] => 45543 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => MY GARDEN [time] => 2004-04-30 04:32:47 [hometext] => I've finally got a fence round my garden after 8 years of no privacy, can't wait to get in there!!! [bodytext] => Now I’ve a fence round my garden
It’s time to think up a design
With rockeries and trees
Lots of flowers for the bees
A little piece of heaven that’s mine

No more people looking in when I’m out here
Being nosy and noisy and irate
Just pure privacy
The kids, dogs and me
Shut the rest of the world out with my gate

Soon I’ll start digging and planting
Mowing, and sowing my seeds
I’ll be trimming and strimming
It’ll do wonders for my slimmimg
When digging up and pulling out all these weeds

There’ll be Peonies, Aquilegia and Chrysanthemums
Dahlias, Lavender and Sweet Peas
Hollyhocks, Tulips and Lupins
Anemones, Lavertera and a few Hebes

So as soon as the sun starts a‘shining
I’ll grab my fork and my spade and my rake
A bit of gravel here
Some fruit trees over there
When I’ve finished it’s gonna look great!

If you keep them all out you will surely miss the praising comments of the lookers on and that would be a pity. Nice poem though top marks
