The Garden In The Soul
There exists a garden in the soul
A paradisiacal water's edge is that place
Wherein all thoughts of beauty do flow
A return to the primitive purity of the human race
-----------------------------------------------------
Where a lovely laughter shows rosebuds morn
Comes a pause in the days concerns
Where the potential of the self was born
And where the simplicity of the garden is learned
-------------------------------------------------------
Upon a whisper and a silence teeters
Until the brain begins to swim, error free
Where the petals of the garden are the scion
And the spirit of humanity is most swimmingly
Born, bathed, and set free to ponder
The garden of the soul
Itself
In all of its splendor
In all of its wonder
Enigmatically......
Tony Taylor

The best things in life are free?

still playing with the thought Tony. Still playing with the line. "Upon a whisper and a silence teeters".
In the UK we are experiencing a strange time politically. I doubt that we will have the same prime minister in a couple of weeks. I am afraid that I am going to take your line out of context and make it rather dark.
I will have fun though,
your friend Nigel

Amazing poem Tony. I really like the metaphor i.e. the soul is like a well watered garden...

Your mind must never stop working your words/expressions are
quite amazing - my poetry is what I call the simple type and when
reading yours it seems even more so, but guess we all have our
own way of putting things - lol Β But in all honesty you are aΒ great
poet your soul must be really beautiful.
Love Anne x
