My Secret Garden

In the darkness, in the light
Something deeper than sight,
A whisper, or a shout.
The Path.

Stones.
Large, small,
Black, white,
Pink, grey, purple, green.

Footsteps.
Slowly, Carfeuly,
Tracing its shapes,
It's colours.
The Path.

The instructions are soft,
You might not listen
A ghost, leading the way.

You've reached the end,
Only the begining,
The Door,
Now you must find
It's heart shaped key
Inside me.

You found it!
You won!
The end of the game.
Not,
The begining,
A neverendig journey,
The journey of life,
Of love.

Open the door,
Timidly, cautiosly.
Expectation.

My garden
Was colourless,
Boring,
Graceless,
Unvisited.
You, The Chosen One,
Surprize,
Neglect,
Regret?

In your small insignificant hands
Lays the Gift,
The Beauty.
Water my plants,
Grow in me seeds,
I never knew that existed,
Play in my swing,
Smile.

Here's my hidden beauty,
You own it.

Author notes

The other day, was it yesterday? I watched a little bit of one of my favourite all time movies, "The Secret Garden", and thought abut the phrase 'My Secret Garden', I felt inspired to write about it though I didn't know quite what I was going to write about. After a lot of reflection, here is the result, Hope you like it!

    Wow, This is an awesome piece I must say.It got better and better as I read on. The last two paragraghs where very deep though not many words were used they were still words that hit me and stood out as significant. Well this is great!!

    Beautiful. 'Ghost' is mis spelled on line 18, but that is not a deal. It flows beautifully, and I love the idea of it, each of us being a deserted garden of sorts until love shows up. Beautiful imagery. I really loved it.
