My Garden Is My Sanctuary


Garden Poem of the Day

My Garden is my Sanctuary
By Marie Church

As I look out to my garden
I feel a sense of pride
It really is a lovely room
Except it is outside

Where lovely things mix and match
And greenery fills the walls
The sound of trickling water
Coming from the gold fish pond

I love the sight of stones and rocks
And driftwood and tree ferns too
The sounds of all my chimes
I know you would like it too

With pride I walk around my garden
And savour each scent and smell
Colours of yellow, red and gold
Striped cushion on a bench

The bird bath has its own domain
It's placed beside a wooden arch
Where all the birds come to bathe
And drink when they are parched

Ladybirds can hide away
Sometimes they come out to see
What's happening around them
With caterpillars and the bees

There's not much more that I can say
Except if you have your own
It won't take long to build it up
Seeds will bloom once they are sow

Gardener's Quote of the Day

"A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them."
