Exceptional Careful where you tread! The Night Garden by Aussie

Up in the tree, Sleepy slept soundly The day was done - evening stars shone Human-kind had doused their lamps All yawned loudly. Sleepy stretched - scratched his head Looking for his kin: plaster faces Dopey wriggled his ears; pachyderm? Doc polished his glasses; learned mind. Grumpy stamped in dismay - "Let's get this party underway." Gentle snoring from the house; humans Dopey tripped over his robe - fell face down. "Hey!" Frog croaked - hopping madly Sleepy shimmied down his tree - "I'm awake - let's party!" All night they tended the garden. Pulling out plants; pesky weeds prospered Plaster dwarfs they are not Beginning sneaky work at ten O'clock Keep your door closed - handy the hose! Recognized Author Notes My photo of Sleepy (one of the Seven Dwarfs) snoozing through the day in the bed we made for him; don't have all seven of the little fella's - be careful what you wish for!
