An enormous water feature in a Japanese garden filled with bold Japanese maple trees, flowering bushes, and thick grasses. A stone lantern and a stone statue of an egret can be seen in the background. The pond itself is populated by many large koi fish.

Walk through a beautiful garden undoubtedly gives you a special feeling It's about scent, nectar and an ideal place for relaxation Every summer, the garden welcomes you with beautiful flowers and butterflies The jewel is a small pond with colorful fish and plants that are an eye-catcher The pond is designed as a ring, it symbolizes eternity 14.06.2018 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved When line five allows your poem to thrive Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One 2nd place in the contest
