Keep Off The Grass
On your right is the neo-realism house
With displays of countryside scenes
To refresh the eye with long forgotton vistas:
Arabian deserts, English pastures, Asian rice-fields,
Alpine meadows, American prairies stretching to the horizon.
Coming out and turning left
You come to our woods - rare specimens
Of richly grained oak, sandalwood and honey-tinted pine
From trees that once flourished here
Preserved for your grandchildren's children!
Also you should not leave us without viewing
The replicas of flowers, carefully sculpted by scientists
Using drawings of the most stunning accuracy.
Visit the museum shop to purchase your flower souvenirs
Each with its own individual scent!
Finally no visitor should miss the pride of our collection:
Situated under a glass bell
With miniature clouds producing rain at timed intervals,
A patch of real, yes real, grass.
Chairs are provided for contemplation.
