A Watering Rhyme

The Giving Tree

A Watering Rhyme

Early in the morning,

Or the evening hour,

Are the times to water

Every kind of flower.

Watering at noonday,

When the sun is high,

Doesn’t help the flowers,

Only makes them die.

                                 Also, when you water,

                                 Water at the roots;

                                 Flowers keep their mouths where

                                 We should wear our boots.

                                 Soak the earth around them,

                                 Then through all the heat

                                 The flowers will have water

                                 For their thirsty ‘feet’!

New words

hour, watering, noonday, boots, soak, heat
