The Garden In the Window

I invite you to my window, Where forks a path you may never go See that garden there bursting with blooms? It is yours, but you must only look, Sit in my boat, but please do not row It grabs holds and doesn't let go Great things happen outside that window The brownies there sing joyful medleys, Their allure entrancing and deadly. They whisper come, but I must say no And out there their world is aglow, Out there they only reap and never sow. Saw many a-sovereigns in flowing capes A stones throw away from dusty drapes It pains me that I may never go As you gaze outside my window Forging conniving plots utterly low Sure, you may break the glass and climb outside. But when you breathe in that garden ever-wide, Will it be what you hoped? As you gaze outside my window Longing for more than to watch the plants grow I bid you, please, to simple gape in awe. And take it for what it is; a silly law. Simply stay, Simply cope... NOTE: I originally wrote this for a "garden contest" that I stumbled upon. But now that I posted this the contest seems to have vanished :(
