My Garden

Come, walk in my garden
sit and drink tea in the rain,
smile and watch the blue birds
laugh and play with me!

Come, dance in my garden
casting a circle of peace
Leave behind your burdens,
bury them deep in the earth

Come, sing in my garden
teach me a new harmony,
a heavenly melody sung to the angels
Their smiles brighten our day


Come, pray in my garden
Kneel at the alter of stone
whispering secrets to faeries
The sun and the moon become one

Come, sleep in my garden
Let the dreams carry you away
innocence planted years ago
now becomes seed for the soul.

Lady Ariele 2003
