Chocolate-box

There was an old tree
in our yard growing up
it sat alone in a corner
for all to see.
I used to sit in that tree
and dream beauty of dreams

That tree was old, as years gone by
though was not frail, standing strong
that tree was tall as it reached the sky
and lived through time long.

In that tree I felt safe, at peace.
Even through changing years
that tree does never cease
in my heart that tree appears.

In the winter it would shelter the rain.
In the summer shade the rays,
and during autumn days
the garden would flood
with red, brown, and gold
and come the spring, flower buds
shall blossom again.

That old tree, with all it gives
shelters the rain, shines and shades
falls, then blossoms again.
That tree is a tree where friendship lives.

Last weekend we went to visit the new garden shop in town, we plant to buy some summer plants for our garden and on the terrace. When we arrived their the shop is already full of customers because on the opening day of the shop they are giving away up to 30% on every items. At the entrance door we received the stickers coupons to be stick on every item we will buy.

So aside from summer plants we also bought flowering house plants, pots, garden soil and fertilizers. We also enjoyed viewing their pets corners like their aquariums, bird cages, and other house pets. We got a great discount when we paid a the cashier. We went in their coffee shop to tried their newly baked cakes as we rested our feet from the tiring day at the garden shop. We went home and prepared the plants to be planted and place in the new pots.
