Love of Gardens

To walk with butterflies which seem to dance
greet a hummingbird as it slows the flight
I hold gardens in a tender romance
and feel my skin kissed by wind featherlight
in the midst of it, all beauty is found
as a flower's scent brings the honeybee
while birds glide high above me all around
my eyes relish the bright colors I see
whether day or night gardens are timeless
as waterfalls, as clouds cry Nature turns
her light to dark transition is seamless
as my soul finds the peace for which it yearns
I bond with beauty in gardens I adore
a wondrous wandering welcomed captor
