In a garden full of glee, with a sky as blue as can be, there was a boy named Ben and a girl named Jen, giggling under a lemon tree.
The sun shone bright, the air was light, as they played with all their might. 'Let's chase the dragonflies that zoom and sing,' said Jen, giving Ben a playful swing.
They hopped and skipped, their feet did flip, until they found a treasure chest! Their eyes aglow, they yelled, 'Oh! It must be magic!' mightily impressed.
In the garden, a secret fort, built with twigs of every sort. 'Shhh!' said Ben, 'It's our hideaway.' Creative adventures were always in play.
The garden was alive, with rustling leaves and buzzing bees, as they played with glee. Jen proclaimed, 'Let's play hide and seek!' Ben agreed, 'Count to ten, no peeking, though!'
Jen dashed behind the daisies, while Ben tip-toed past the pond. He hid behind the willow tree, both as sneaky as could be!
'Ready or not, here I come!' Ben shouted with a giggle and a hum. Jen was quick, silent like a tick, hiding where the flowers stand thick.
Ben tiptoed, Jen laffed, and around the garden, they did daft! Up and down and all around, laughter echoed without a sound.
In every nook and cranny, they did look, under rocks and over brooks. The game was grand, their cheers were loud, until finally, 'Found you!' Jen did shout proud.
With smiles bright like candy lights, they tumbled to the ground. The garden’s magic and the day’s delight, their hearts truly did astound.
'Let's do it again tomorrow!' said Ben with a wink. Jen laughed and agreed, 'You’re the best playmate, always in sync!'
And so the garden kept its cheer, waiting for the children dear. The blossoms swayed as if to say, 'Come again another day!'
