My own little Eden
has not a tree of life
to understand or reason
with very little strife
It brings a good feeling
along with calmness and containment
to keep a heart from careening
beyond the darkness lies commitment

You gave the poem some depth Roland, very well done, thank you.

Thanks Mystic, it is not easy to write a poem on a subject requested by another, but I gave it my best.

This is my Eden
My brother’s garden is a bit of heaven
Away from the worries and cares of life
A place I can sit and be at peace
As I forget about everyday strife.
Lots of trees, so cool and shady
Where the birds also like to visit
Germaniums and lavender bushes
Sweet fragrances where-ever I sit
There is a breakfast room for mornings
And a special place for tea
For the gardens has many rooms
Yet I know where I love to be
For my favourite place in the garden
As I just let the hours drift by
Is when I sit on the veranda
While above is a cloudless sky
Doreen E Hampshire

I know what you mean Roland, it is a challenge and I for myself enjoy to give way to it!

Yes, Mystic, must agree with you about Doreen's piece of Eden, may we all this Eden sitting on our veranda, looking at the cloudless sky.

My own little Eden
If we have a garden or a balcony
With green and flowers, lovely views to see,
We are lucky, for in times of stress
There is a place of help beyond assess.
Peace, a chair and my world is moving slow
The quiet nature helps my thoughts now flow.
The garden Eden comes to mind and I
Can’t help to breathe of relief a sigh.
In middle of a lovely, work filled day
The plants and flowers seem to say,
I must make the most of this freedom,
Gratefully enjoying my own little Eden.

I bet Mystic you look down from your window and see your little garden of Eden, to enjoy, relax, which fills the day, you are indeed fortunate my friend.
