The Tended Garden

Morning In The Fairy Garden

When the warm wind blows

and warms my skin

and the sun sinks in and

heats my bones

the air goes still and my

breath is quiet

Let the day

take me

where I belong

and drift up

into the sky

so blue

and wake my heart

to my soul

so true

and hear a voice carry

my life

and watch and guide

and watch and sigh

And let me drift

back to the ground

and feel the sun

and the soft surround

whisper me quiet

and whisper me sleep

and pray the Lord

my soul to keep

Now I watch my garden grow

the care and time

only they will know

my faith and trust

in them I’ve kept

the dew off petals

they have wept

And time changes their

every thing

and in my soul

their radiance sings

forever be true,

forever be strong

and in my heart

they will live as long

my mind’s eye sees

the dewy delight

and the glow I see

in the morning light

The vision stays

and I hold it near

And together we pray

An invisible tear
