Nope! I'm ignoring this national day. People would probably pay me to put my clothes back on. Even in my young and skinny youthful days I would not adhere to this celebration. My clothes stay on lol! I'm impressed that you are embracing it :) Go Chrissy! It's your birthday suit!

He he he! This sounds like a lot of fun, but a bit prickly on the body I suspect! I think I would prefer some protection from all those bushes! Your poem made me smile, love Dolly x

One of my friends did post the day on Facebook so I was aware of it. Well, I hope it's not too cold for you as it's autumn there. It's too cold here for that and I don't want to shock the deer.

Gardening in the nude? Yikes that a scary venture from all the thorns and spiny bushes to trim, for example, like the one you're trimming. I've never understood nude barbecuing either.

But congratulations to you on a most tasteful photo and an excellent poem. :)

Great job and I hope you didn't get too many prickles. lol.

A cute verse for a day that I've never heard of, Nude Gardening Day.
How silly and fun.
Your picture is a hoot, but looks a little scratchy.
Well done and thank you for sharing this with us.

Wohoooo, a high five, even a salute to a brave person, I will have to remember that for next year. The first Saturday in May shall be an important day. My only problem will be trying to find a garden to tend to, but I will lol. A fantastic rhyme pattern in a poem that provided constant chuckles. Very well done Christine, very enjoyable, thanks so much for sharing.

Hello Chrissy, have I discovered the ultimate in 'chic', right up there with Audrey Hepburn, HRH Diana P of W, and Jackie Kennedy? Chrissy, Princess of Shrub Fashion.

Hahahaha You don't offend me, LOL, I think it's fun and nothing to fix, but you do you're right and your kids will most likely block you on Facebook. Cheers, Ana.

A very well-written poem about Nude gardening day. It seems to be a fun thing to do, but our weather is so cold today, I will not dare to do that I may just froze into a naked statue. Lol.
