The Summer Garden

The Summer Garden


Stepping into the morning breeze

Inhaling timeless summer smells

Freshly mown grass

Scented jasmine

Infect the air with fragrant charm

Gently coaxing virgin shoots

That slowly reach for life and beauty

Shaping tendrils strong and wild

Fighting to dominate and control

Ruthlessly killing the roguish weed

That springs unsought through solid earth

Raking and hoeing the harsh, dry soil

And planting miracles precious as gold

To grow to dazzle and inspire
