Glory To The Garden

The utter splendour of garden life Encompassed by nature, calm and serene A sanctuary away from all that strife What a pleasure it has been! Wondrous sounds competing all around With eyes closed, I listen in Standing barefoot upon grassy ground A blissful deluge has me in a spin A lonely droplet descends from above Splash! A pond ripples of a glistening fluid Hidden within a small meadow grove A droplet lost in a swirling multitude Ponds, hedgerows, and colourful meadows An array of habitats, for one and all The river sparkles as it flows A falcon glides, I hear his call Duelling dragonflies have set the scene Blooms of yellow, blue, and vibrant lime And all the hues found in between A magical moment captured in time This enchanting space touched the hearts of many A slice of heaven for all who stood within A defining place along my spiritual journey It resonates deep beneath my skin
