Our Mind Is But A Garden

Our mind is the garden
Wherein we grow our life,
Where a waterfall of voices
Cascade in our minds
Swimming with a myriad of choices
Every day and through the night
On all the days and years we live
And every time we may or might,

Each thought is a seed
Where the brambles are greed,
Magnolias are kindness
And vines choke the hosts
Of the mindless
Where love and vision,
Are a flourishing addition
And delicately tended thoughts
Bring passion with fruition.

So flaunt fine blossoms,
Sweet fragrances
And fruitful boughs
That drip with purpose
To render meaningful
All your hours.

And as you go
From thought to word to action
In time’s relentless fractions
Watch your thoughts,
For the bounty plucked,
The autumn come
The garden put to rest,
What did you do
What have you done?
Can you esteem your existence
In the greater garden of earth,
Do you feel as one?
