what beautiful walls you have
intricately carved with trees
distracting and protecting
from the garden within
why is there no gate
in your walls of design
i catch perfumed flowers
and i long to see more
here’s a space repaired
a door once opened in
now you’ve bricked it over
what caused the closure
where once a pathway stood
did others wander freely
this barricaded route
would you let me in i pray
i promise i won’t trample
but carefully enjoy
each lovely secret recess
don’t you know gardens
were made to be shared
