Garden meditation

The tadpoles in the garden

Are turning into frogs

The sun is shining

It’s too hot for dogs

The fruit trees are blooming

The country it is parched

Who could believe it?

It’s still only March

The sky is a deep blue

They’re swimming in the sea

People wearing shorts

And sipping cream tea

The weather is delightful

The sunshine is so hot

I gotta put a hat on

Before I lose the plot

It’s hotter than Venice

It’s hotter than Spain

The headlines in the papers

Make that plain

It’s hotter than Greece

It’s hotter than Rome

Who needs a holiday?

When you can stay at home

So I’m sitting in my garden

I’m watching bees buzz

I’m listening to the flowers grow

The dog just does

The fruit trees are blooming

Pink petals in the sun

I’m doing nothing

Just listening to the hum

Ommmmmmmmmm………
