A Sonnet..... From One Of My Books. Poem by stella armour

The Eternal Garden ~ sonnet


God's garden is a temple of my love
so peaceful, calm and beautiful to know,
with lovely lilies, favourite foxglove
and roses red that set my heart aglow.

I sense your presence on the morning breeze
and feel your whispers as they kiss my face;
oh, then I close my eyes and pray " God please
keep safe my blessed angel in this place."

For here we are at one with all that is,
in birth and death the seasons come and go
and from my vision you are lost but this
will not be for always and this we know.

The sweet rain falls as kind tears from my eyes
so soft and gentle, true love never dies.
