The Fairy Garden Poems ...Beginnings

In April a borrowed dog tentatively explores our garden

The Fairy Garden
started with a stump.

The Mulberry Bush
became a tree
became a tangle
became too big...

Its intrusive roots reaching
into our house foundations

The Mulberry Bush
came down.

What to do with the stump?

The stage- the podium
the perfect time & place
for a flower fairy.
