BIRTHDAY BOY
BIRTHDAY BOY
To Bernard
“Goodness”, said Bernard,
“I'm shattered.
I feel as though
I've been digging
all year.
It's not just the
garden
That needs to be
watered.
Darling Jan,
Would you bring me a
beer?
And now, I need to
work
In the orchard.
To ensure it's at
Its very best.
Ffion wants to smell
Every blossom,
And I want her
To be so impressed.
She wants flower petals
To make fragrant
perfume,
To distill the
precious
Essential oil.
To smell like an
apple,
A pear or a plum??!!
Well, I just put in the toil....
But, to work
in my garden
Is always a
pleasure.
And, who knows, I
might find
Buried treasure!”
Ffion
