"Secret Garden"

Written by Kimberly Ann Goins

Where is my secret garden?

I think I've found the key to it
The key to finding those
Beautiful orange
Pink, yellow, and red
Vibrant hues
Of blooming flowers

Oh yes, I have the key
To those green leaves
And vines and wreaths
Delighting my eyesight
Mmm, I can practically
Smell the honeysuckle
As its sweet honey scent
Tickles my nose with delight

I know I have the key to
My everlasting happiness
And my dreams
I have the key
To my castles in the sky
And no longer will I have
To gaze at the puffy white clouds
And envision shapes
And personas within them
Oh no, I already have
My tranquility within my grasp

I have the key to my passion
And I have tapped into my motivation
And I have experienced
Instant liberation

I have joy today
And thus I live for today
But my eyes are wide and
Fixed forward
And my hands are open to tomorrow
And my key is in my hand.
