This is a fun poem. The weather here is finally nice enough that I have been able to do things in my yard. "A little color's all I need" perfectly describes the way I feel about spring. Well done!

    Thank you, we had one nice day and I got some flower bulbs planted but today yucky cold and rainy! Ugh! Hope you and yours are safe and well.

Cheerful and whimsical. Fresh touch with the gnome amidst the birds and flowers. I especially like the final verse. Flows well in good rhyme. Thanks for the uplift. Cheers. LIZ

This poem conveys the reassurance that comes with repeating a happy phrase that pops up to say something pleasant, as the narrator goes outdoors to garden.
The images of flowers & of birds in the garden reinforce the joy of being in nature--ordinary yet sublime.
