A river wanders slowly
beneath the painted trees
it looks at summers bounty
and listens to the breeze.
A gazebo standing proudly
watches as it flows
river banks surrender
beneath the rambling rose.
Lupins talk in whispers
carnations bloom in play
while nature, with a hand held brush
paints a pink bouquet.
Free your mind to beauty
walk softly on the ground
as you wander in this dreamscape
of serenity unbound.
