Bertie in the Garden

Times are hard in Bunnyland so Bertie has a plan
To cultivate his garden and grow carrots if he can
He’s cleared a shady corner of all the tangled weeds
And been off to the market and bought a pack of seeds
He’s going to look on t’internet to see what’s next to do
Meanwhile the lovely Bessie has made him a nice hot brew
Bertie’s found a useful website called “Gardening BBC”
And is reading up on carrots whilst sipping on his tea
It says “carrots are nourishing and keep you fit and strong”
So growing some in your garden a bunny can’t go wrong
“Work the soil thoroughly. Remove all rocks and stones
Sow the seeds very deeply. Ignore your aching bones”
Bertie finishes his second cuppa and he smiles a little smile
He’s off to plant his carrot seeds and may be gone a while
