How does my garden grow? - HNT #37


Shhhh . . .

Come with me into the garden . . .


I have something to show you.




Step lightly though, we wouldn't want to startle her






Look . . . just there, beneath the yellow flowers . . .




Garden Faerie


The Flowers ~Robert Louis Stevenson

All the names I know from nurse:
Gardener's garters, Shepherd's purse,
Bachelor's buttons, Lady's smock,
And the Lady Hollyhock.
Fairy places, fairy things,
Fairy woods where the wild bee wings,
Tiny trees for tiny dames--
These must all be fairy names!
Tiny woods below whose boughs
Shady fairies weave a house;
Tiny tree-tops, rose or thyme,
Where the braver fairies climb!
Fair are grown-up people's trees,
But the fairest woods are these;
Where, if I were not so tall,
I should live for good and all.



Ok, so I posted the only half nekkid gardening photos I had last week, and rather than be redundant, I got creative . . . Truth be told this isn't even a flower in my garden...I didn't plant anything on the balcony this year at all . . . but it is a garden in my neigbourhood . . .

Care to see how other gardens grow? -->
