what if my memories were seeds?
what if i awoke one day
surrounded by a garden?
would the garden be a fearful sight?
trees of mellow fruit,
flowers from every bitter summer,
and roots strangled by my terrors.
or would the garden compare only to the biblical Eden?
trees of laughter's labor,
flowers of my loved ones gifts,
and roots of gold from a life
not just survived, but well lived.
but no magic haunts my blood
and the garden is over growing in my head
so i will build my own out here
with the only thing i have ever understood:
letters to words and words to poems.
the poetry garden: intro
- a collection of poems for every one, poems for no one in particular, and poems for my self. all poems are 100% original and belong to me, some derive from fiction/ imagination, but most are from direct personal experience. please be respectful and if you enjoy, don't be scared to vote and comment :) :)
