Happiness is Plant Shaped

HAPPINESS IS PLANT SHAPED

I went into the garden, it was a sight to see
The daffodils were all in bloom
And I spied a bumblebee

The snowdrops they had gone away, the crocuses all done
But the bee it still had work to do
The summer’s still to come

For happiness is plant shaped, or so I have been told
I love it in the garden
Maybe I am getting old

I didn’t always feel like this, when as a little boy
I didn’t have the interest in
The plants that bring me joy

I guess it’s just as years go by, I start to feel the pleasure
Of being in the garden
To experience life’s treasure

And Mother Nature’s wonderful, for making it come true
And happiness is plant shaped
I do believe ... don’t you?

Billy Swann (1995)
