I Live In a Magical Garden

I live in a magical forest Tall ferns greet me on the east Along with frothy Queen Anne’s lace And a purple lilac tree with dainty blossoms I live in a beautiful forest With a snowball bush and an apple tree. Walnuts drop onto my driveway Trees hiding me from the neighbors I live in a mystical forest Deer come nearly to the house to eat my flowers Foxes and wolves merrily prance around, Raccoons and opossums are on my porch nightly I live in an amazing forest Cardinals, robins, and wrens fly in Overhead I see hawks and eagles. There is a marsh to the east of me. I live in a wonderful forest Fifty years ago this land was known as Indian Village The Wyandotte tribes pitched their tents here in the summer And planted wild iris that still grows with wild daisies and wild strawberries. I live in a magical forest.
