Notes About The Poem

Private Gardens

wildflowers abound
   in places we may not see
      on a mountain ledge
   deep within a forest glen
 in nature's private gardens

well, i admit wild flowers are beautiful, but i also admit you have some different thought, it's either you talk of toads chasing humans, or some minions looking for a leader (well, they found me) lol....and yes! i almost forgot, those toad really chased the hell out of me, luckily am not human, so i didn't lose a leg, only got a sprain while running, and that's why i didn't come around to leave comments lol........this tanka is so beautiful, the imagination's thrilling, excellent you
