Secret Garden

How cool ~ The secret garden. I have a key. Do you wanna go? I wonder ~ What should we wear? How should we dress? When should we go? I'd really like to stay. That is if it's ok? I would plant flowers everywhere. With little gnomes here and there. And make it welcome Just for my fairy friends ~ That would come by to say hi. And maybe plant a fish pond. For the little Koi to come play. From the babbling brook nearby. Fragrant flowers for the bees passing by. But most of all. Within this place, I'd find Tranquility with peaceful grace So every morning before I start. I'd visit that secret garden within my heart. 11 18 2012 Sun. 2pm

We all need a secret place where we can retreat and find tranquility. Your question on traitor, I can only say it was a teacher but not who you mentioned.
