National Poetry Day #8

In response to the NaPoWriMo prompt #8:

Once on an April day in May
As I was travel’ing home
I chanced upon a garden gay
And in it sat a gnome.

His bright red cap stood high above
the flowers all about
His face shone bright with gardener’s love
Dear gnome, so cheer and stout.

Mary Beth Frezon 8 April 2011

Still pondering the Not Without Poetry Prompt about hope. Love the story leading into the prompt.

Meanwhile I’m to the outermost couple of squares all the way around. Had been stopped to do a little hand sewing needed but now hopefully it will go faster.

    Love it, esp. the first line – didn’t quite catch that until I read it the second time.
