----- <br />This is my garden, my career; <br />full blooms for ladies I once knew. <br />Beware, beds creep to plots of fear, <br />all nettled, drenched with tears of dew, <br />as mounding mites, each crawling year, <br />must blight the spot where flowers grew.<br /><br />Glenn Bagshaw<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/advice-from-herrick-the-gardener/
