The garden starts with snowdrops poking through the snow,
Then comes the yellow daffodils, they make a striking show.
The Daisy is an easy plant with petals dainty white,
And pastel colors intertwine to make the garden bright.
A Trumpet vine that climbs so high, a vibrant scarlet red,
And hiding in their roots below are the pansies in their bed.
For hummingbirds,and butterflies the nectar is so sweet,
A lovely flower garden is the greatest summer treat.

Hi Doris! Smiling



The Hummingbird

Came the spring, I picked a corner and set my mind to making a flower
garden in the midst of this mass of weeds unattended through winters toughening of the soil.
I tilled, and pulled, and turned, and broke, and bled...
The soil was perfect now...
But, alas! The puppy was fervent in her efforts to help me dig!
So I cut, and I sawed, and I nailed, and created the most beautiful little picket fence with a gate.....
and planted a tree......
and planted my flowers...
and tended and watered and weeded
and nurtured all through the Spring and Summer months....
To this day, this perfect Autumn morning,
while standing in my doorway,
sipping that first cup of coffee....
I saw the fast-beating wings of that little faerie,
flitting from flower to flower...
was all worth it in that one moment.

Oh! I loved that hummingbird poem!
I have little (well, maybe not so little) helpers, who necessitate fences, too. Smiling

Fearless, indeed! Some years back, when we were still using the red commercial hummingbird food mix, I was sitting outdoors with a glass of red wine in my hand one evening. Little beggars tried to attack me for that glass of wine and would NOT leave me alone! I had to go back inside and trade my crystal glass for something opaque. Hilarious!

In Defense of Hummers
Here I sit upon this line,
surveying all, that mine.
I may decide to fly,
to rescue what is truelly mine.
It is ture that , I am small.
but I bet I could back you,
to the wall.
I want the world to know.
I may look sweet,
But what is mine, is mine to eat.
