Welcome To the Garden of Life

Ruby rose red velvet petals all around
Liquid scarlet from top and down
Tunnel wrapped all entwined
Life is fed through the Vine

Going further pulling down
Past lacy whispers the fringe on the edge of a gown

Cold winds on my head
Feet still brushing the velvet bed.

Streaming light smoke by my still closed eyes

First touch a sting first sound a scream

The vine of life is cut for me

Welcome to the garden of life
