The Garden calls to the weary soul, Encumbered by life's toils and woe, Tranquility and peace therein await, To greet you at the Garden gate. "Come my beloved, enter my peace, Unburden thyself, thy cares release, Breathe deep the scented floral breeze, And come for thy much needed ease." "Come sit by the pond so sweet, The lilies reflected, as a friend do greet, Unconditional acceptance you'll find right here, All felt in this harmonious atomosphere." "The birds will sing you a cheerful tune, The butterflies will soar, dip and swoon, Flowers display thier radiant glory, Waitng to hear your secret stories." "Your secrets are safe in this refuge place, No judgments made, no frown of a face, Just be yourself, no mask needed here, Find peace and contentment ever so near." The Garden awaits your visit today, Please, do come when you can slip away, There's an open invitation, like a good friend, Whose door's ever open, an ear to lend. 7-10-2001 |

Dennis; This is so lovely. My garden gives me much joy and peace, so I really can relate! You have penned this with much Mystical magic! Ellie A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |
