5/18/2026 for My heart is a secret garden Poetry Contest sponsored by Silent One
Somewhere hidden, there lies an ancient heart, all alone, where it quietly retreats. Love is so far away and set apart. No one would ever guess that it still beats. Somewhere hidden, there lies a secret lock, but no one has found either lock or key, much less, an unseen door on which to knock, as seasons turn and waves crash in the sea. Somewhere hidden, there lies a lady love, but could her fortuitous, gentle birth save a heart and soul, soon to rise above - an angel gift from heaven to the earth? Are these forever fated to dark, hide or be seen 'fore I reach the other side?
