Poem -
The Garden Of The Soul
there exists a garden, within the soul
a paradisiacal waters edge, is that place
where into, all thoughts of beauty does flow
a return to primitive purity, of the entire human race
where loving laughter shows rosebuds morn
comes a pause, in the days concerns
where the metaphysical self, was born
and where the simplicity of the garden, is learned
upon a whisper, and then a silence
till the brain begins to swim, error free
where the petals of the garden are the scion
and the spirit of humanity is swimmingly
born, bathed, and set free to ponder
the garden of the soul
Itself,
In all its beauty
in all its wonder...

hey, T, there is so much here, and I read it a few times, it's a poem you have to take time to appreciate like a good glass of wine, and it speaks to me about embracing something pure within us that somehow we've lost, with all the thought pollution we ingest; stress, negativity, pride, envy, malice...this 'garden within the soul' you speak of ('comes a pause, in the days concerns') is not easy for me, most of the time, be honest, I second and third guess most everything and get stressed out easily...wow, you speak of an awesome place of letting it all go...T, you really made me think with this one, I remember as a boy I would sit and watch the movement of clouds for hours at a time, now I barely notice them....inspiring poem, lots of juice to ponder, thanks bro, I'm staying with this one for a while....cheers....love the pull quote

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,
Eden has risen. We go back to the inceptions of mankind. We frolic freely in the splendor of the grass. We return to the "primitive" purities of our existence. The simplicity of a fig leaf. The never ending flow of beauty. The souls of mankind, again, in the Garden of Their Creation.
Peace, Love and Rockets,
Larry xxx
