Festival Gardens opened

Liverpool's Festival Garden site has reopened

Water features abound

Soft greens and wild flowers

soften the margins.

Lilies float on the water

Reminding us of Monet's art

Which is currently at The Tate.

Wild flowers bloom

Heavy rain and bursts of hot sunshine

the wildflowers of Victoria Park

luxuriate in the damp warm air

blooming forth to make their mark

on this small patch of England.

Jubilee Party

All over the land

The Queen's Diamond Jubilee

Was celebrated with red, white and blue.

She has reigned for 60 years

And the rain over the weekend

Seemed to know that too.
