II like no other garden smell
So well as smoke, and never shall;
A smudge inside the garden fence
Is my idea of frankincense;
like to see the black smoke curl.
I'd rather smell my neighbours smudge,
Than eat his fayorite daughters fudge,
That pungent, bitterly, hartshorii smell

Your wife comes a-snorting "Whew!"
But, Sakes Alive! she likes it, too;
1t stands for clicking up whit her,

thing that follows Winters snow
AS me" does tut" in Cicero.
There's any quantity to tell
About that smoky Springtime smell;
How much 1t prophesies and means
In terms Of corn and peas and beans!

Extracts curse for things that's tin.

A tang so wholesome, so entire,
It's fun to feed the garden fire:
| The leaves that banked your house you
poke
Along, in hopes they'll smell and smoke
With last years corn and cabbage
| roots
And vines and tops and stumps and
shoots.
There amt no other garden smell
Wherein all kinds OF perfume dwell !;
The sayory's summered scent it holds,
The onions three-rold breath enfolds
The soil itself, l b'live, delights
To raise smudge that kinder bites,
So, Hush! My Garden, never fear,
| have match behind my ear.
