My Backyard

I’d like to take charge in my backyard,

I’d like the tulips to be pretty the roses are dead. Oh what a pity.

But any flowers would be fine but just some plants would be divine!

Oh, yes! Oh yes! At last the roses have arrived that was fast.

Just look at my garden it’s just fantastic. I really like my garden I reckon its sick!

“Roar! Rahh! What was that? I think it was a talking cat!

See ya later I’m going to deal with that.

But who cares, after all it’s just a cat.
