Accident Or Design

 

Was the garden over grown

By accident or design,

The laurel stretching

To the heavens,

Bamboo breaking

For the sky,

Evergreen and wild

Blackberry almost everywhere,

Fruit trees with the grapevines

Winding around the pear,

Birds singing, sun shining,

Rabbits peeking,

The couple kneeling

Picking berries,

There was something

Mystical, spiritual

About the space.
