The Aster


The austere aster stands guard at the garden gate,
protecting the beautiful blue bells on the path,
casting a protective petal over the daisies,
The lovely aster is ascetic and unassuming,
while it stands its post at the garden gate,
ever keeping a wary diligent eye upon the rose bushes,
wishing the butterflies would come its way,
yet never does it covet the attention paid to the
posies,Lillie's,and bachelor buttons,
The aster stands alone at its cozy fence,
surrounded by an army of sparkling white marble chips,
ever assuming the position of attention as it goes about its duty,
never complaining that the sunflowers tower over its lovely head,
nor caring that the dragonflies flit above the cheery cornflowers,
because humming birds flutter round it's regal head,
paying sweet homage to its amazing beauty,
and to its great importance while it guards the garden's minions.
