Dragonflies, Birds and Flowers
_______________
I went to my garden this morning for this is where I meditate
and was dazzled by the beauty that I have created
from nothing there is this magical place that I can step into
where flowers sway like sparkling jewels in the breeze
the orange, coral, red, pink, fuchsia, yellow, white and purple
of petunias, geraniums and wildflowers drip colors sublime
where sparrows, cardinals and yellow warblers sing
and bees buzz happily and blue dragonflies small and mighty linger
where butterflies dance and spin and green hummingbirds flutter
and lush emerald mingles and vines cascade reaching out for me
oh, there is such a tranquil feel that sometimes it overwhelms me
faith must have moved my hands in planting this garden sanctuary
and each day I give all the flower petals and green hued leaves
loving caresses and praise their beauty with kisses ...
