Garden

Inside my heart there lies a garden.

Not ordered, ornamental, box tree lined

with gravel paths and symmetry

A wildness of colour and drama.

Tangled briars,

Roses sweet in their perfume

Honeysuckle and clematis

Heavy scents

Dazzling colour.

Wild herbs, a fragrance in the air

Dandelion clocks and poppy heads spreading their seeds,

Buttercups and daisies dotted in the long grass.

Overgrown

In places overcome with undergrowth

Which itself has a beauty

Unique
