My Garden Of Dreams

Let your dreams flow past you to another land
Where the sun shines and the flowers stand
The plants look up with leaves on their stems
Radiating in the sunshine behind my camera lens
As I contemplate my garden bed
I can feel my worries evaporate out of my head
What beauty! What wonder! I marvel at what is before me
Reflecting on this nature I feel so free
Your dreams will grow in your devoted hands
A heart needs love to grow and expand
Like the garden thriving in front of me
Dreams need gentleness, effort and company
