A garden of memories
March 4, 2011
There’s a garden always blooming It’s the garden I see from within me A garden of my life’s memories A garden that I breed as I breathe
A peaceful meadow of green canvas Splashed with colors so vibrant It feels like the rainbow spilled over Making me smile from deep within
I see beautiful red roses giving me love A family of fragrant lavenders stand tall The friendly sunflowers are smiling at me While pretty white daisies sway in peace
A moment of comfort, a moment of bliss Radiates through me, making me proud That moment lasts only to be disturbed By the realization that something’s amiss
My vision has reached far to now see Wilted dying flowers that I cannot help Vile weeds of hurt that make me cry My beautiful garden is all tainted
Why oh why, I ask myself… Did I not nurture it with my heart and soul? Do I not have that green thumb? For I only want to see those rainbow colors
So it dawns upon me… I smile again The rainbow colors are still right there Wilts and weeds I can pluck and forget My garden is as beautiful as I wish it be
