Geronimo And The Magic Flowers.

One morning, before daybreak,

Geronimo the Bear,

Crept out into the garden,

And met some new friends there!

"The flowers need a drink," he thought,

"They've stood here all night long,

I'm sure a drop of water,

Will make them big and strong!"

So over to the daisies,

The kindly Teddy went,

To lend them all a helping hand,

Was clearly his intent!

He sprinkled them with water,

Then turned to walked away,

But then a voice said; "Thank you!

You've really made our day!"

"How very odd!" thought little Bear,

"I just heard someone speak,

I must be overtired,

As I've had a busy week!"

"Oh no you're not!" replied the voice,

"I'm down  here on the grass,

You've been extremely generous,

And I couldn't let it pass!"

The Teddy looked below him,

And then what do you think?

He saw a talking daisy,

And was truly tickled pink!

"Hello" she smiled "I'm Debbie,

I'm glad that we could meet,

The humans trample over us,    

With their enormous feet!"

"It's awful!" whispered Della,

"They treat us just like dirt,

It isn't any wonder,

That our feelings get so hurt!"

"She's right you know!" wailed Hilary,

 A   beautiful Hydrangea,

"We even have to meet at night,

Because we are in danger!"

Geronimo was most upset,

He said; "It's such a pity,

Because from where I'm standing,

You all look VERY pretty!

"Thanks very much!" laughed Debbie,

"We really were in strife,

But since your little visit,

We've all come back to life!"

"I'm so relieved!" smiled Teddy,

"Those humans make me cross,

But if they just ignore you,

It really is their loss!"

"I know," said Mandy Marigold,

"Let's do a little dance,

And prove what we are made of,

While we have got the chance!"

Our Furry Friend was spellbound,

As a wind began to blow,

And all the lovely flowers,

Started waving two and fro!

"Well done, well done!" he shouted,

When the dance routine was over,

"It's been so good to meet you all,

And now I am in clover!"

But just as he had spoken,

The sun came shining through,

"I'll have to go!" he muttered,

"There's such a lot to do!"

"You must come back!" smiled Mandy,

"We work out every morning,"

But before you could say "daffodil,"

The flowers started yawning!

"I'll come back soon!" said Teddy,

"Of that you can be sure,"

And then his magic garden,

Was really still once more!

THE END.
