Creative Juices: The Secret Garden
A poem by Kaytelyn Wetmore
February 2, 2016
The entrance gate beckons
For more to come and see its beauty
That waits on its other side
Fully blooming blossoms
And calming scenery
With trails leading astray
Roses dance gracefully to the side
While peonies play for your attention
The hydrangeas hide in beds above
Orchids stretch up to the sky
And tropical flowers bask in the sun
Within the greenhouse
But no one comes to see this beauty
For the flowers have all gone
And a new resident plants its roots
A resident who is covered in gray
The one that covers the green that used to be
A resident that knows nothing of beauty
