Gardening gloves and nail polish


I used to wear nail polish
As a sophisticated Frenchy
Is wont to be
When a friend rang me
For a plant rescue operation 
About some native orchids
In need of relocation
I turned up in my fur coat
And nail polished hands
To dig up the damned bloody orchids
From under a waterfall
To a quieter digs
All that action
Was done under 
A television journalist supervision.
She couldn't pass over
 The way bush regeneration 
Was done by the Frenchy!
Being French is so awesome
One could commit a crime
As long as it was classy
Nor to forget about gardening gloves!
