Builders of Fine Stone Structures

Stone upon stone, we lay them on top,

Not a dollop of mortar – No, not even a drop!

In structure we use friction and weight,

To find its own binding, surely as fate.

Designers of Landscape

Oftentimes we get the chance to make plans,

Laying out lines of stones and plants,

Flouncy and firm, cheery they play,

Bold and assured is surely the way.
