Garden Haiku
Series
Crappy soil
reigns
With tree root
competition
It's hard as
concrete.
I tried
zucchini,
grown in
deluxe potting mix.
Mildew
developed.
A possum
attack
decimated the
broad beans;
the remnants,
now caged.
Parsley's gone
to seed
with silver
beet and spinach;
Leaves chomped
by insects.
Who has a
green thumb?
Not me, with
Raynaud's disease
and purple
fingers.
I so much love the humour here! and word choices. I don't have luck growing vegies either
