Hey, what’s that sign say. Who can read around here? What’s that sign say?
It says “Garden Revival Tonight. All garden fairies should attend.” I guess we’d better go.
Oh goodie, I’ve always wanted to go to a gardening revival!
My dear garden fairies! Thank you for coming this evening to the great garden revival. Now I know some of you garden fairies are weary, tired of opening new flowers, wondering where you’ll get the strength for the mad rush to open fall flowers, not to mention paint all the leaves. I’m here to tell you that you will find the energy. Look around! Be grateful! Oh sure, it’s a little dry but the gardens have never looked better. She weeded! She is starting to lay down more mulch. Surely, you all can hang on for a few more months? Let’s make this the best fall ever in the garden!
And great things are planned for the garden. I can’t tell you all the plans, but some of them involve the compost bin.
You heard the gardenangelist. We can hang on. We are garden fairies, after all. We’ve come so far this season, we can make it through fall. Who’s with me? Let’s go!
You had me on the edge of my seat! Best revival ever!
Amen…let the fall flower opening/painting begin…
Nice story you shared in the start of this post. I really enjoyed to reading this post. Thanks for sharing here.
If I pitched a tent here, do you think the Gardenangelist might hold a revival meeting here? My fairies and I could use a little motivation right now.
