Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Pruning your roses in the middle of winter
Ensures that the stems will never splinter
Cut the stems cleanly and on a sharp angle
And the buds that bloom will never tangle

    Thanks for the horticultural lesson. Not that I grow anything that I don't manage to kill within three weeks...

    I wonder why we say pruning... So fruity (and I mean that in a good way).

    Roses are red
    Violets are blue
    Your verses are pretty
    Your advice very witty
    Your photos fresh and their subjects true.
