My Little Garden

Through the dewy panes As my eyes scan through my garden Everytime I am spellbound My childhood's hideout My favourite room beneath blue skies Sound of splashing water Coming from the bird bath Clapping of leaves when spring breeze blows Each plant wearing distinct shades of green Music of bumble bees And games of squirrels Frivolous flights of butterflies Soaring in and out of rims Sights of stones and rocks And velvety moss on the walls With spring in the corners Buds unfurl meek petals Tiny wildflowers smile amid rose bushes Ladybirds and caterpillars Make their presence feel Saying a silent hello Cuckoo and robins perch on mango tree Just where my garden ends Filling music with perfect notes In the air no one can ever sing My little garden invites me Every day for a walk To enjoy the riches no castle can ever render Beauty and music mingled to soothe my chaotic mind You can find me Lazing on the caned bench every evening 23/02/2019
