Hidden Garden

Unknown and unseen by

passersby, our secret garden

is our private delight, leaping

into vision, surprising us

constantly with its display of

flamboyant blooms, fragrant

floral sprays and the fabulous

verdant architecture of vines,

trees of ornamental diversity,

leaves like spoons and spades,

lances and air-light feathers.

None but we privy to its

splendid array and glorious

colour, shapes and enchanting

discoveries of unexpected

appearances, shared by bees,

butterflies, dragonflies and

birds that shelter in the

dazzling performances it

daily mounts in the theatre

of its lively exuberance.
