My Spring Garden Here is my little garden, Some seeds I'm Going to sow. Here is my rake To rake the ground, Here is my handy hoe. Here is the big Round yellow sun, The sun warms everything. Here are the rain clouds In the sky, The birds will start to sing. Little plants will Wake up soon, And lift their sleepy heads. Little plants will Grow and grow From their warm earth beds.	Package of Seeds They can't see their pictures, they can't read the label -- the seeds in a package -- so how are they able to know if they're daisies or green for the table? It sounds like a fancy, it sounds like a fable, but you do the sowing, the weeding, the hoeing, and they'll do the knowing of how to be growing. Aileen Fisher
The Gardener Plants the Seeds (Tune: The Farmer In the Dell) The gardener plants the seeds. The gardener plants the seeds. High ho the derry oh, The gardener plants the seeds. 2nd verse: The rain falls on the ground. 3rd verse: The sun shines bright and warm. 4th verse: The seeds begin to grow. 5th verse: Flowers grow everywhere.	The Seeds Grow Tune: Farmer In the Dell The gardener plants the seeds The gardener plants the seeds Deep down inside the ground The gardener plants the seeds The rain clouds give them water The rain clouds give them water Seeds need some water to drink The rain clouds give them water The sun gives heat and light The sun gives heat and light Seeds like it warm and bright The sun gives heat and light The gardener pulls the weeds The gardener pulls the weeds Seeds need the room to grow The gardener pulls the weeds The seeds grow into flowers The seeds grow into flowers Flowers that are beautiful The seeds grow into flowers
Growth A little garden flower Is lying in its bed A warm spring sun Is shining overhead Down come the raindrops Dancing to and fro. The little flower awakens And starts to grow.	My Garden This is my garden, I'll plant it with care, Here are the seeds I'll plant in there, The sun will shine, The rain will fall, The seeds will sprout and grow up tall.
Seeds A little seed for me to sow A little earth to make it grow A little hole, a little pat, A little wish, and that is that, A little sun, a little shower. A little while - And then, a flower!	I Dig, Dig, Dig I dig, dig, dig, And plant some seeds. I rake, rake, rake, And I pull some weeds. I wait and I watch And soon, you know My garden sprouts, And starts to grow.
