The Terrace Garden

Planters were in The soil followed Then came seeds Tools all lined up

Seeds were planted The spade slit a finger Recovery prolonged The soil dried away

The compost was in Seeds sown, soil dampened The onset of sprouting And pests took over

The soil now replaced Pest control in place But them birds swooped in The garden had to be netted

Plants shot up to the knees It was worth all the wait Then there was the downpour The highest in 117 years!
