The Memphis Area Master Gardeners enjoyed our annual holiday dinner Wednesday night at the Memphis Botanic Garden. Our outgoing president wrote a special farewell song!
(Sing to the tune Loverly from My Fair Lady)
All I
want is a flower bed
Perhaps
a trowel and a potting shed
A hat
upon my head
Oh
wouldn’t that be loverly
Give me
a spade and place to dig
I’ll
plant a mater and I’ll plant a fig
Who
knows they might grow big
Oh
wouldn’t that be loverly
Oh so
loverly putting scraps into the compost pile
How do
all those tater eyes
Turn
into a fertilize...errrr
Lots of
perennials and lots of seeds
Lots of
hydrangeas and not one weed
All a
master gardener needs
Oh isn’t
just so loverly
As the
prez I’ve had all the perks
I’ve
watched us grow and I know your quirks
You’ve
taught me all that works
Because
you are so loverly...loverly...loverly...loverly
Love-er-ly
She sang a cappella - and with a "loverly" hat on her head! It was fabulous!
