Over the Garden Wall

Over the garden wall

 

“Ah, there she be

my lovely garden. 

And somewhere out there

over the garden wall

lives the girl I love.

Perhaps within the village 

or closer to the big city.

Possibly she has a place by the sea?

Ah, the Daffodils are blooming

the lovely Pinks,, Primrose,

and Marigolds are coming.

I think I’ll put the new Roses 

over there by the Clematis.

She will love the roses.

They’ll surely cheer her up

when she sees them.

I think my pathway

needs some straightening up.

The birdbath needs water.

I wonder how she’s been getting on?

Probably, still not feeling well.

This too shall pass.

After all, she had a lovely wedding.

Shame her groom had to die so soon.

He barely made it out of the church.

Definitely, Roses by the Clematis.

But, only if the warden OKs it.\"
