In honour of National Poetry Day…..

I love you lily

Oh why did I leave you to

Suffer the slug fest?

    You're my favourite poet of all time,

    In honour of this, I have posted a comment in rhyme.

    In the face of such competition I shall give up my new career as a garden poet!

    Ms B I think you're very silly
    To let a slug destroy your lily
    After the slug enjoyed it's fest
    I hope you killed the bloody pest

    Don't be dismayed,
    Don't feel bereft
    Beetles finish
    What the slugs have left.
