Analysis of Garden of Love



The garden of love
and life is growing
The greenery is shooting
up taller and faster
The flowers sprout up
with little happy faces
on
Trees reach for us and
hug us
They speak to me as
I walk by them
The animals all come
out together - I sense
their cries for peace
and longevity

The world needs
change and compassion
People are choosing life
and have less depression.
They are reaching higher
in their goals and inspiration

Birds fill the sky
The oceans turn bright
green and blue

I'm on the nature
path where more and
more  people are
going
There's a growing
of love for all
nature
The forests tell me
that truth is to
work for the spirit
They are my teachers
The wellspring is
overflowing with
generosity and peace
and joy

The love that
transcends all
understanding - the
mystery and beauty
we all have, when
we stay together in
the vast waters of
life, is coming
closer and closer
