Magical worded creative garden
Every blossom unique to its own
Design breezing in tranquil  thoughts
Religion of getting along together
Hand shake of nature upon humanity

Peace within a soul upon another
In this space there is no war
Religions holding hands united
Peaceful coexistence flowering in
Every color imaginable upon sunshine

Depressed darkness banished in enlightenment
Weeds found here do not fester any hate
It along with bigotry, bias are banned
Cancer here is about living in remission
Living moments of total enchantment

Cuddling velvet textures of loving tenderness
Garden of the true blessing upon heaven’s earth
Compassion of the wealth within the heart
Beating into every word around your existence
Meditative garden of total peace and tranquility.

Note: If we could create a garden in Jerusalem and in selected areas of conflicts were war could be banned and all people could come in to pray for peace among all the religions of the world and the people who claim them, it would be a miracle.

I wish every poet could add their flower to the arrangemnt in a world peace of respect for all of humanity.

Nicely presented. Planet Earth could sure use a few thousand of these PEACE gardens.
I offer a love scented flower to add to the bouquet.

Oh yes, this would be such a beautiful place, if there was such a garden to be reached by all....maybe, as writers, we can create it here, as I know it already lives in our hearts.  Thank you for this one, that expresses what most of us want more than anything....~S~
