Garden of Hope

What a beautiful day this is going to be.
Come.
Let us take a walk in my garden of hope.
It is a peaceful quiet place.
The evergreens are dense and shaped in the form
of
angels, with wings spread in a protective concave.
No outside noise from the harried world enters
my garden of hope.
In my garden, a sky of blue, a gentle breeze
and
the tranquil sounds of a babbling brook.
My little pond filled with colorful little fish and charming lily pads.
Surrounding this peaceful scene
are the flowers
of
lavender Delphinium, tall Desert-Candles,
and striking Oriental poppies.
Delicate False dragonheads, the color of delicate pink, nestles close to the moist warm little pond.
Step a little closer into my garden and smell
the lovely roses of brilliant colors and of every kind.
This blue rose will take you, as you inhale the fragrance,
to the land of fantasy and impossibility.
It has the essence of hoping for a miracle and carrying the magic of new possibilities.
Come, rest in this cushioned chair for a bit.
Relax.
Here is a footstool for your tired feet.
A warm gentle breeze will caress your skin
and
the sun will kiss your face ever so gently,
as not to burn your tender lips.
This lovely garden is for all.
So won’t you come and join me in my lovely
Garden of Hope?


Good Morning. Have a happy Thursday.
Enjoy
Love Bon-Bon

this garden of hope exists throughout the minds of warmth, sunshine, and everlasting love...as is, so to, your heart...otherwise, where did this beautiful prose come from?

Lovely my dear...simply refreshing and filled with smiles.
