A wonderful poem for gardeners everywhere!"She dug the plot on Monday, the soil was rich and fineBut she forgot to put the dinner on, so out we went to dine.She planted roses Tuesday, she says they are a must.
They really were quite lovely, but she forgot to dust.Photo CreditOn Wednesday it was daisies they opened with the sun,
All pinks and whites and yellows, but the laundry wasn't done.Photo CreditThe poppies came on Thursday all bright and cherry red,
I guess she really was engrossed, she never made the bed.Photo CreditIt was violets here on Friday in colors she adores,
It never bothered her at all, the dirt upon our floors.Photo CreditSaturday I hired a maid, I'd not admit defeat,
She can garden all she wants now and the house will still be neatIt's nearly lunchtime Sunday I cannot find the maid,
Oh I don't believe it.She's out there alongside my wife with her own spade!"Photo CreditAuthor unknown
