Analysis of Garden of Love



Garden of Love
Please plant the new seeds and garden with me
And help prune the roses below my elm tree.
Together we'll turn soil, and toil in the sun
With many hugs and kisses to make this fun.
We will see what Mother Nature's love does send,
As this labour of love makes us more than friends.
So please share with me on your hands and knees
As we cultivate, nurture and plant our love to be.

As I awaken to the touch of light that burns upon a candles wick flickering my words for all to see. This drives my thoughts through the darkest of nights of loneliness that renders my quill upon parchment with ink that dances to minds and souls.Now I hear the screeching of my heart when the blue horizon covers the orb of emptiness.Within the shelter of my mind with little, purpose other than my words that keep me sane. These are my new poems I have written in the quiet of my night, forever wished away in a writer’s pain. As I strive to write that perfect poem that, my soul desperately seeks. Then and only then can my words rest upon a sleep. more…
