The shadows grow ever longer
As the day is coming to a close
I am standing here watering my garden
As the water sprays finely through the hose

Through the misty spray I see a rainbow
Captured by the suns last few rays
In this garden paradise that I live in
A place where I spend so many days

There is really only one place
That I would so very much like to be
When my living days are over
And my spirit is set free

When my time comes to leave this earth
My ashes I would like to see
Scattered throughout my garden
Particularly under my favourite birch tree

I'll become a part of my garden
At one with Mother Earth I will be
Finally I'll be a part of nature
With all the flowers and the trees

My spirit I hope will soar
With the birds up in the sky
And I hope to rise again
To see the spectacular sun rise

I, too, love my garden...unfortunately, the computers inside. Thanks for bringing the two together!
