I laughed when I saw itIn spite of myself!

A garden can be lots of workIt may be lonely too,Though not if there are zinniasTo shout "hello" to you.Rest a while from workingLeaning on your hoe,See them bright and cheerfulBrightening up each row.

Geometric wonderDesign of living laceWaiting, waiting,For the right bright dayTo wave purple petalsLike flags,Calling all GoldfinchesTo the feast!
