'Secret
Garden Party'
by
Kayla Rose Weiss (7th grade - Indiana Jr High School - 2000)
12
year old Lizzy McGillicuddy had a garden
A
vegetable garden to be exact
One
with plump red tomatoes
Peppers
both hot and sweet alike
There
were cucumbers and peas,
Broccoli
and corn
And
let us not forget the magnificent sunflowers
that
stood there towering over the garden
And
their smiling, bright, cheerful faces
spreading
joy to one and all.
One
brisk autumn morning
Lizzy
sat outside and was observing her garden
She
saw creatures of all kinds beginning to invade her garden
It
was then that she realized with a smile
That
if you want a party
Plant
a garden, and the guests will invite themselves.
