The Turquoise Garden
The Turquoise Garden
I dream of a magical garden
That lays beneath a turquoise sea
It’s filled with seashells and cockles
And sand the color of honeybees
The coral is the shade of pink roses
The grass is emerald green
Rocks and sea urchins cover the floor
The shy octopus is unseen
It’s home to fish in orange clown suits
Angels without their harps
trumpetfish without their trumpets
And lions without their manes
The seahorses and sea dragons
join the jellyfish and shrimp
In games of tag and hide and seek
In the tunnels of secret caves
Pretty mermaids with their tails of gold
and locks of crimson red
Gather delicate pearls they find
In the garden’s oyster beds
It’s a magical place that I dream of
Filled with the creatures of the deep
And I hope someday I’ll find my way
To the garden in the turquoise sea
