dverse have invited us into the garden. beware gnaugty gnomes below.

gnome trouble

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear,

The gnomes have taken over,

 The garden needs a repose,

The calm it has been broken,

The gnomes have taken over,

Their hooligan ways a menace,

All the flowers they have trampled,

All the weeds they have planted,

All the gardeners hard work undone,

Reinstating nature’s bounty,

Who repose is this?

that the gnomes fight for!

  1. Hahah – what a fun write. I guess the garden gnomes could all tell their own story. I once had a horse in my garden which caused quite a desaster – smiles. Oh and they also plant the weeds… ha – someone should have told me this before. We call them Gartenzwerge in german

  2. Haha. I love it. I so wanted to write a gnome poem. My first scribbles today were of one but it never turned into anything. So who do you call to take out the gnomes? Pesky little buggers. 🙂

  5. LOL. I am a senior and I recently moved into seniors housing where there are gnomes in the garden. LOL. They crack me up. I leave them, since someone put them there at some point and they must have liked them. But….gnomes!

  13. We couldn’t have an evening of garden poetry without a mention of the not-so-humble gnome! This was fun, imagining them getting up to mischief…
