Violet Lutea is here once more, a basic kit of the most used gardening tools

She dug the plot on Monday-
The soil was rich and fine,
She forgot to thaw out dinner-
So we went out to dine...

She planted roses Tuesday-
She says they are a must,
They really are quite lovely,
But she forgot to dust...

On Wednesday it was daisies-
They opened up with the sun,
All whites and pinks and yellows-
But the laundry wasn't done...

The poppies came on Thursday-
A bright and cheery red,
I guess she really was engrossed-
She never made the bed...

It was violets on Friday-
In colours she adores,
It never bothered her at all-
All the crumbs upon the floors...

I hired a maid on Saturday-
My week is now complete,
My wife can garden all she wants-
The house will still be neat!

It's nearly lunchtime Sunday-
And I cannot find the maid,
Oh no!  I don't believe it!
She's out there

WITH THE SPADE!!!
