To wander through life's highways

Amidst deep shades of green

The gardens in our Hearts

That is where we dream

The caring Heart knows no boundaries

It takes care of all things lost

Does not matter the age of things

For all things turn to dust
How many people along the way

Have you Loved and tried to Trust

Even though the paths are steep

Still we wander on, because we must
Trying to forget that deep within  the caring heart still weeps

Now I'll take you further

Into a place of sweet surprise

A wondrous beautiful garden

A place close to the Heart
There are honeysuckle growing

Along the old brick wall

And in a little corner

Pansies sweet and small
Further on a little bit

Are Orchids in their pots

And just to add a little thrill

Wisteria grows aloft

There by the Oak tree

Grows sweet Daffodils

Golden heads and deep green stalks

Next to Sunflowers tall

This garden is just pure delight

Grown by hands of old

Many years have come and gone

But still it holds all quiet
