Wizard fooled us with a magic trick That sparkled brightness from Aurora’s eyes That left the Trail of Tears with fresh surprise All planted in our garden deep and thick. The spell was nullified when Dazzling Blue Affirmed his faithfulness to Tender True.
Linked to dVerse Poetics. Sarasouthwest offers a challenge to plant a garden with her favorite seeds. I picked Wizard, Aurora, Trail of Tears, Dazzling Blue and Tender and True.

What a lovely garden you’ve planted. It feels like a tiny fairy tale.
