Opening

Clusters of crocus Purple and gold Blankets of pansies Out from the cold Lilies and iris Safe from the chill Safe in my garden Snowdrops so still Ah A'o jadu ke mausam A'o garmiyo ke din A'o mantra tantra yantra Us ki bimari hata'o Mistress Mary, quite contrary How does your garden grow? Not so well she said, see the lilies dead Pull it up and out you go Mistress Mary, quite contrary How does your garden grow? Far to hot she said, see the rose has died Dig it up and out you go Mistress Mary, quite contrary How does your garden grow? Had an early frost, it's gone, it's lost Dig it out, you're up, you're out You're out you're up And out you go!
