a Thought
for Thursday

The Gardener I Think I Should Be

I've not been a big fan of gardening in fact I would go as far as to say I have never liked it at all. I have a deserted greenhouse and a shed that houses garden tools which still look as new as when they were in the shop. Get this though and don't be shocked, I'm actually coming around to the idea. I've been tidying up my garden and it is quite rewarding when it starts to improve.

So after visiting the Flower Show at the weekend I think I may be getting some inspiration. It's like the horticultural part of my brain is finally waking up and why not? A garden can be so pretty and a very tranquil place to be, I quite like that. I don't know whether my aching body quite agrees with my brain but hey ho, it will catch up. 

My verse for Thursday is dedicated to my dream of being ' the gardener I think I should be'..........


My garden it needs so much love
​I'm hoping Percy Thrower is looking down from above
To give me inspiration
and lots of information
To be the gardener I think I should be

It's a bigger job than one first thought
many tools and equipment have been bought
The weeds keep on growing 
the lawn always needs mowing
One day I'll be the gardener I think I should be

I'm thinking I could be good enough for a show
if I keep up this momentum and flow
Chelsea is beckoning 
well in a few years I'm reckoning 
To be the gardener I think I should be

​I cannot believe the amount of garden waste
and where exactly it is all meant to be placed
I have an extra bin
but it's full as soon as I begin
​How do I become the gardener I think I should be?

I'm not good with the beasties that live beneath
there seems to be life underneath every leaf
I feel safer at the end of a rake
​I'm supposed to be an adult for goodness sake
Be brave and be the gardener I think I should be

One day my garden will be fine
to sit out in it will be just divine
Some lights powered by solar
the odd can of cola
To celebrate being the gardener I think I should be
