Butterflies, Squirrels and Bees

Sitting in quiet repose

Green lawn in full expose

Branching Neem boughs lean

Laden thick in dark green

Home and refuge to teeming life

Bees squirrels and butterflies

Chirping birds only at dawn

To the nearby Sakura drawn

Shady swing so inviting

For birds squirrels so inviting

Bread crumbs in hanging plate

Impatient visitors do not wait

Beehive at home with Neem

Deceptively silent team

Abundance and richness its quality

Nature`s marvels not for vanity

Upright palms reddish stems

Flowering plants beautiful items

Bushy shrubs dark laden leaves

Sanctuary for birds squirrels and bees

The view at dawn in evening light

A paradise deserving sight

Hanging ferns bearded wisdom

Vibrant waves from the plant kingdom

Nature`s bounty at its best

Pristine dazzling off the west

Our home at number seven

Kelana Jaya a real haven
