Garden of Delight


Garden of Delight

Would that I
could bottle
the feelings
I get from
being in nature

For there is no
greater elixir
in life, tis pure
inner peace and
I wish it for the
world

Innocent chatter
from birds busy
at nesting or soaring
above

Dancing butterflies
I am told are angels
in disguise

Scampering chipmunks
hurrying not to be seen
as earthworms do their
job while ladybugs light
on my shoulder

Wind blows lightly
through the trees
and I know my
garden is a sacred
haven for all who
enter here
