The one with my dream garden...

The air was hot and steamy and
filled with the scent of flowers,
thousands of them.

The place was truly marvellous.
Between the bushes and
their loads of purple, red, and white flowers.

The wet grass was full of smaller flowers:
pink ones with only three petals,
giant pansies,
wild phlox,
lupins of all colours,
orange lilies,
tall white lilies,
irises,
and a myriad others.

There were creepers growing flowers big enough for hats,
cornflowers,
poppies, and
plants with strange shapes and
stranger colours of leaves.

Several hundred blue butterflies
feasting on a bush of yellow roses.

At the end of the green lane,
the grass became squashy.
Vast orchids sprouted under the bushes.

I came suddenly to a steaming pool
crowded with water lilies...
