A world of color
and shape
and texture
and size
and shape
and texture
and size
Brought from catalogs
from other gardens
from other places
Brought together
in fine imagination
becoming reality
as paintings are painted
master gardeners sculpt in plants
Beds and borders
raised and sunken
terraced and potted
arranged just so
the creations bloom
and shower color
and bring us pleasure
Once a year
the gardens open
visitors stream
to gaze and ponder
savor and enjoy
the gardens open
visitors stream
to gaze and ponder
savor and enjoy
Recognizing hard work
matched with creativity
the gardeners gather
to ooo and awe
appropriately
The soil so wooed
with seed and sun
food and labor
sends forth the fruits
to make it so
Creation
our tiny understanding
So pleasing
the Garden Show
