My First Blog

I decided to write a blog tonight
But couldn’t think what to say
(It’s not usually such a big problem -
I can normally blather all day!)

So I thought I’d do something different
And try my hand at a rhyme
(Not too sure if it’s working
But hey, I’m new, give me time!)

My garden, I find it quite lovely
So soothing, so pretty, so bright
I’m far from an expert, believe me
But striving to get it just right

I’m sure that Growsonyou members
Will be there to lend me a hand
And offer advice when I need it
Which is likely to be quite often really, cos I need all the help I can get.

(Well I couldn’t think of a rhyme for hand!)

Your very first blog is a good one
I've tried to reply in rhyme
But I need to go and sit in the sun
Cos it's going to take a long time

Likewise and it's still a mini thrill when people actually respond/reply to me !

Me too. There's always the horrible thought that no-one will respond!
