Behold the Gold!

MELLOW YELLOW MONDAY

BEHOLD THE GOLD!

The sun was behind the clouds today;

Everything seemed to be touched by grey.

A good day for honest garden toil,

Dealing with roots and shoots and soil.

A trip to the nursery seemed ideal

To get away from the bend and kneel,

And look for Spring flowers to light our way

On such a drabby sort of day.

Then, round a corner, I espied

A sunny day personified!

Set against slats of brightest yellow,

Themselves a treat, so bright and mellow,

I saw three 'suns', well, imitations,

Pleasantly planned rotund creations,

Destined to grace some garden wall

And bring delight to one and all.

I threw them a glance as if to say

'Thanks a lot! You've made my day!'
