Beauty In A Garden
April 4, 2015
Walking through the air,
the colors dazzle far out,
flowers and flowers.
I breathe in nectar,
It engulfs me with sweetness,
another day loved.
To feel but pure bliss,
the opposite of before,
when home was alight.
Fire pulled us down,
we drowned in sorrow and fear,
our home was far gone.
But now as I sit,
the sun scatters its warm light,
refreshingly kind.
My heart’s on my sleeve,
begging for something to feel,
and feel it shall do.
Love’s alike our pain,
as long as we can feel it,
we’ll have much to gain.
