I have a little box of heaven
which I’m watching carefully
As I’ve nurtured every seedling
as you would quite naturally
And yes, I know they’re on the small side
but they’re growing all the time
So I’m confident that fairly soon
I’ll be rewarded with a sign
Maybe later on this year
or maybe next, who knows?
It depends how fast my heaven
and my lavender, it grows
