The World Revolves Around My Garden

would you just look at those vivid roses
and morning glories and tulips
in a pretty row?
I'm so proud of myself!
this garden would not be complete
without a fountain with a statue of me in the middle
yes, the world revolves around my garden
I'm the best little gardener in the whole wide world
if you want a bouquet for your next wedding
or a spray for your next funeral
give me a call
I also write poetry in calligraphy on parchment paper
and put it in
a pretty frame.
