Garden of Tranquillity

In this place we can reflecttranquility
Enjoy the peace and calm
Say goodbye to loved ones
Now far away from harm

Crimson roses loiter here
’Midst dew, beneath the trees
Family and friends
Gather in propriety

I linger in the garden
Her familiar smell is here
I wonder if she’s looking down
I shed a tear,

I glance along the garden path
Where summer flowers bloom
I recall the good times
I hear a happy tune

A chirping bird calls me
I look up to see
I blink at the sunlight
She smiles down at me

In this beautiful garden
Our loved ones live on
No fear or confusion
No tears pain or doubt

Just peace and tranquillity
And love shining bright
