Serenity Garden

I have a lovely place I like to go,
where I can watch the peaceful water flow.
Cascading into the pond is a waterfall,
wonderful times spent there I can fondly recall.

A beautiful lady holding a golden urn,
standing there waiting for me each time I return.
Soon becoming entranced by what I see,
the sounds of the water again setting my spirit free.

Rocks formed in the shape of a star,
can be seen from the garden, wherever you are.
Nestled amongst several lovely trees,
this serenity garden is at times cooled by a breeze.

Built with devotion and special care,
serenity and peace are always awaiting you there.
Flowers grow abundantly on the ground,
a comfortable oak bench handy so I can sit down.

During rough times I can relax here,
before long all my worries and cares disappear.
Just relaxing during any free time,
hearing again musical sounds from my wind chime.

During the day I watch clouds drift by,
admiring their overall beauty, I take in a deep sigh.
A butterfly dances freely before me,
floating gracefully to each of the flowers it can see.

Over my head another beautiful sight,
sitting here looking at the moon and stars at night.
Sometimes in the distance you can hear,
the sounds of beautiful music playing crystal clear.

The wonder of nature, a sight to behold,
worth more to your spirit than any amount of gold.
In my serenity garden I will stay content,
thankful for the countless blessings I have been sent.

Giving thanks always to God above,
for guiding me with His grace and His undying love.
For He is the one who gives serenity,
in whatever garden anyone should happen to be.
