Come On Into My Tropical Garden

What Up Peeps!!!

Poem Background:This poem was actually not written by me!! It was written by a famous poet named Grace Nichols!! This poem that she wrote was very capturing to me when I was in the 9th grade!! It is definitely one of the poems that I found to inspire me!! This poem is very entertaining and is kind of like an Imagery poem. It'll definitely make you feel welcomed, comfortable, and warm inside when you read this poem. Some parts of this poem will rhyme and other parts will not. So, here's the poem, "Come On Into My Tropical Garden". Enjoy!!!

Come On Into
My Tropical
Garden
Come on into my tropical garden
Come on in and have a laugh in
Taste my sugar cake and my pine drink
Come on in please come on in

And yes you can stand up in my
hammock
and breeze out in my trees
you can pick my hibiscus
and kiss my chimpanzees

O you can roll up in the grass
and if you pick up a flea
I'll take you down for a quick dip-wash
in the sea
believe me there's nothing better
for getting rid of a flea
than having a quick dip-wash in the
sea

Come on into my tropical garden
Come on in please come on in

So, what did you think of the poem? Did you see and feel the images that Grace had emphasized on?! I did! That's actually one of the reasons why I love this poem. It feels like you're new in town, and your new next door neighbore introduces themselves to you and lets you into their home!! I think that's pretty cool and nice!!

Well, Peeps, hopefully that was a nice and refreshing poem for you to read and enjoy!!! If you write poems and want your poems and yourself to be featured on my blog, contact me through my e-mail, which is:
