'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.
