A GARDEN FOR THE DEAD


Source:


Frozen in place.
Dripping tears for centuries.
Memories of a lifetime.
Praying for salvation.
A frown for eternity.
Will her tears sprout
a garden for The Dead?

OPEN THE DOOR





A closed door.
It can open to many things.
It can lead to a garden of flowers.
It can also lead to unspeakable horrors.
What are you in the mood for?
Do you want pretty flowers, 
or do you want to explore the unknown?
The choice is yours.

IT SITS ALONE IN THE GARDEN






How sad is this statue?
Tears dripping down its body.
It sits alone in the garden.
A heart frozen to its core.

Its eyes closed in sadness.
For a savior long and gone.
It sits alone in the garden.
Waiting for help from beyond.

Tears fall ever so slowly.
Freezing close to the ground.
It sits alone in the garden.
Its silent sighs in the wind.

It bows its head in prayer.
For a savior not found.
It sits alone in the garden.
No one else around.

DARKNESS MY ONLY FRIEND






A moonlit garden.
Rose bushes follow
the meandering paths.
Wind rustles the leaves
of the towering oak trees.
The guests are inside.
Dancing to the music.
Twirling around the dance floor.
Darkness is my friend.
It waits in the shadows.
I walk farther from the house.
A cry breaks through the silence.
I look up.
A clearing ahead
holds statues.
One is bent over.
Crying.
Tears falling on white stone.
She lifts her head.
Darkness descends at last.

A MAGICAL NIGHT FOR A PARTY

 



A MAGICAL NIGHT FOR A PARTY
The glass dome reflects the sparkling stars.
Inside, dancing pairs twirl around.
Beneath chandeliers of ice.
Between frozen statues.
Reflecting days gone by.
In mirrors upon the frosted walls.
Spin and dance the night away.
Until the dawn rises clear and strong.
And chases away the dark shadows.
A party at a glass house can be perfect.
Maybe a little too perfect.

GARDEN OF DELIGHT



A garden of delight for me.
In colors of the deep blue sea.
In my mind’s eye I can see.
Myself falling into thee.
In the shade of the plum tree
I’lll wait and you’ll come to me.
We’ll fly away to be free.
To the waves of the blue sea.

A GARDEN FOR THE DEAD



Frozen in place.
Dripping tears for centuries.
Memories of a life-time.
Praying for salvation.
A frown for eternity.
One of many.
A garden for The Dead.
