                  Summer Garden
                _________________

colors
  cascading
    plummeting
      swirling
        like water
          you drink
            with your eyes

         bring your arid heart
           your thirsty mind
          your parched spirit

           here is a rainbow
               you can bathe in
           come away clean
               rise refreshed

I can close my eyes and feel the coolness of the garden, Constance. So very refreshing.

Constance-
   What a lovely garden it is...

      "cascading
         plummeting
          swirling
           like water
             you drink
              with your eyes"


   I love the thought of this..  

   hugs,

Constance, I gained so much from this one, yes, it's true there is nothing as refreshing as the words and the feeling you portrayed with this one!
