Next time I must check before planting br When the merchant delivers my seed br I ploughed the top field in the morning br Made sure that I’d cleared it of weed br br All the large soil lumps made finer br Each worked to a very small till br Then hitched up my seed sowing trailer br And sack after sack did I fill br br It drilled to the depth seed required br The growing time shouldn’t take long br Watered till shoots started showing br I then saw that something was wrong br br The seed I had ordered was turnip br A crunchy veg purple and white br My merchant slipped up and sent pansy br Which doesn’t cook well but looks bright br br br © 2008 David Threadgold br Rambling Riddles & Rhymesbr br David Threadgold www.davidthreadgold.
