Garden Stroll



 



I walked awhile in the garden of my mind



reflections of life in full bloom



Amazed at all the beauty I could find



even knowing, death will come soon



Much like a fragile summer wildflower



so much beauty in so little time



The splendor is that it leaves behind the power



next season many more flowers divine



As I walked I felt something close to my side



so close it was as a part of me



I knew of my life there was nothing to hide



and it saw everything I could see



Of such beauty around me I knew was my past



but nowhere was there anything bad



From this presence came the thought, that wrong doesn't last



only good and of this be glad



I walked awhile in the garden of my mind



each step got lighter as I trod



Crying at all the beauty I could find



now knowing this presence was God!
