Evelyn Judy Buehler Poet Tanka

Notes About The Poem

Garden of Grace

Sunday church garden
of lime green blooms, reds and creams-
Luxuriousness!
Gracefulness and scented smiles
greet butterflies in hued styles.

Orange, yellows, pinks
in the sweet whirlwind of days!
Gathered together.
To the silence, bluebirds sing
in warmth of spring, evergreen.

Hilda Greenhough August 15, 2024 at 1:46 PM This is a beautiful poem. I've seen so many of those garden flowers donated for a Sunday service. It bringing heaven to earth.
