Put Out to Seed Again
Michael Ashby
It’s my turn now to be planted
Put out to seed again
While the fruits of my earthly labours
Flourish in the sun and rain
It’s a wonderful day to be planted
In rich, deep loamy soil
A natural bed, for a tired gardener’s head
With green fingered hands of toil
Please plant a tree or a bush for me
To celebrate a gardener’s life ways
I strove to enrich the world with beauty
Over many, many gardening days
