Garden In a Bottle

Working together in perfect harmony,
Confined in glass for all to see.

Verdant carpet covering the base,
A  miniature tree standing about face.

A paradise concealed in glass,
With love and care, it will last.

I imagine myself small,
About 6 inches tall.

I would climb right in,
And let the journey begin.

Jumping from leaf to leaf,          
Enjoying myself, even if it is brief.

I can’t stay in this bubble forever,
Others would not understand what so ever.

Until you have plunged,
Lest not, I be judged.

Just enjoying my glass bottle,
As gardens go, it is a perfect model.
