The Anthem of the Garden Gnome
There once was a little garden gnome,
the center of the veggie patch was his home.
He wished on every star that he could
to be far more than just gnome-shaped wood.
Than one night beneath a silver full moon
The garden gnome whistled a strange little tune.
Of magic and whimsy the story is told,
He was carved of a tree ten million years old!
A twinkle appeared in the little gnome's eye.
Then wrinkled his nose so happy he cried!
So delight was he that his wish had been granted,
& vowed to protect every vegetable planted.
Because of the gnome, your garden does grow. He's good luck for the clover, veggie & rose!
