Garden of Utter Delight

The Garden

magic garden

One day into a garden fair I wandered
Filled with flowers and herbs and plants
All faces turned towards the sun
That streamed down from heaven above

Pink edged daisies blue tipped rosemary
Green oregano and mint
Swayed they did in tune to me
As I walked around the tree
Under which all this glory grew

On greensward covering the ground
Yellow dandelions marched along
Formation perfect so it seemed
Next to dock leaves big and green
Nestled by nettles ready to sting

Evening

lighting all

Evening arrived 

Pale moonlight lighted on all

Shimmery shapes appeared

Topped with magic swaying tall

Giving out ethereal bliss

Queen Mab and Tatiana then did come
Gossamer winged were they
Around them fairies danced
Singing in sweet dulcet tones

Overhead in tops of trees
Birdlife watched with hooded eyes
Enjoying all the magic fun
That pranced so far below

Night

growing...

At last a multitude of stars
Shone from the firmament
Up on high
Each one a special message had
For those who listened carefully

Silvery sparkles in the sky
Streams of light betwixt each one
Guiding home the many souls
Returning to the Mighty One

And in the garden far below
All was peaceful movement slow
As cell by cell babies did grow
New born taking their first breath
Opening eyes to see the glory of Nature all around

and so it is
