Crystal gardens <br />of tall flowing grass, <br />like servants <br />stark and lonely <br />the rivers of life flow. <br /> <br />Afraid. Savages along the bank <br />become one with the river, <br />and only the children <br />can build a dam <br />across the pain.<br /><br />Sandra Osborne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/crystal-gardens/
