Little garden hoses
Lay on the ground,
I know today
The Fairies will be around.
They have bags of seeds
Leaning against the wall,
Hoes and garden rakes too
The Fairies will have a ball.
Tills churn up the soil
The Fairies are having fun,
There is still so much
Work to be done.
One Fairy stands on a flower
Making sure everything's right in the garden,
But, a Fairy has to work hard
Every now and then.
The work is all finished
Fairies stand back and smile,
They are proud of themselves
The hard work was well worth while.
