What a lovely day

Been outside nearly all day, spent the afternoon gardening with my little helper. He inspired this last year:

GARDENER'S DELIGHT

I have a special little friend

To help me through my toil

Who watches at my elbow

As I dig and weed the soil

I would not be without him

His songs make light the task

For a better motivator

I think you could not ask

His jaunty disposition

And his bright black shiny eyes

Fill me with a joyfulness

I really can’t disguise

His gift of time is generous

Given freely through the day

But he’s always very grateful

For what e’er I pass his way

And now he's got to know me

To my whistle oft he’ll come

With his throat of warmest orange

Like a tiny living sun

And when my work is over

And my tools I pack away

He can eat the caterpillars

I’ve uncovered as his pay
