LOVE WILL MAKE IT GROW

            Red tomatoes

            Orange pumpkins and

            Apples in a tree

That’s going to be my garden!

            Sunshine, water, food                            Keon, Age 6

            And love                                               Sponsor, Sunny Hills

That will make it grow.                            Garden Club

                                                           

NATURE

Leaves can fall

Leaves are tall.

We go hunting in the trees

Looking for the bumblebees.

Frogs are hopping on lily pads              Desiree , Age 6

Boy are the frogs glad.                Sponsor, Condon Garden Club

                                   

NATURE

Leaves are falling

Snakes are squirming.

Birds are gliding

Trees are moving

Grass is moving

Butterflies are flying

Frogs are jumping                                 Elijah, Age 7

Bees are chasing me!                  Sponsor, Condon Garden Club
