The Garden

Within the heart of the city there’s a garden full of life Hidden away but yet in plain sight Green foliage covered in flowers: pink, white and blue Camellias and Statice in full bloom. The people laugh and the birds sing, like an eternal spring Small green ferns cover the ground Red Cordyline break through the green karkalla A sanctuary busting with flora Purple irises and yellow daffodils cover the endless landscape. An escape from reality and an escape from life.
