Secret Garden
Violet flowers
deep pink sea peas
emerald leaves
silent crowns and fairy rings
slowly open, dawn light sings
patches where the deer do sleep
slowly, calmly, dawn does creep
swaying in the lighted breeze
crescent moons of hidden leaves
slowly falling one by one
mystery hides under leaves and roots
quietly, an owl hoots
as dawn opens its doors
silently
