Warm California Sun

As you heard, I took a trip

down California way.

With my ladder, map & sack,

in Alys’s garden I spent a day.

 

A special place you’ll all agree,

it almost seemed like home.

Much bigger than my Kingdom,

still I never felt alone.

Eeeek!!!!  I’d never seen one of these before!

A GIANT peel got in my way.

Geez, what on earth would eat that up?

Luckily, I didn’t see one that day!!

I started to get a little worried,

but spied a good resting spot.

The view was grande, the water crisp,

I enjoyed it quite a lot.

All refreshed, I set my sites

on pumpkins far away.

When suddenly I saw a Mouse,

he said, “come on Alyster, let’s play!”

“Sorry Mouse, I can’t play today!”

I said, adjusting my little cap,

and sang a sweet Irish lullaby

so Mouse would take a nap.

With Mouse asleep I started off,

the earth felt warm on my feet.

I couldn’t  see where I was going,

but the purple flowers smelt sweet.

Suddenly there was a clearing

I was getting closer with every stride.

But I had to be quite cautious,

open field, no place to hide.

Running quicker than a rocket,

I arrived at the pumpkin growing spot.

I set out my handy ladder,

they were taller than I’d thought.

 

I’m so glad I had made this trip,

I was having so much fun.

I just loved Alys’s garden

and the warm California Sun.
