standing on the balcony <br />looking down the garden unkept <br />blossoms fading-wilting <br /> <br />crying for attention <br />weary from neglect <br />once so alive- thriving <br /> <br />full of life - passionate <br />brilliant colors <br />flourishing <br /> <br />blowing in the wind <br />a garden of happiness <br />full of laughter <br /> <br />the gardener touched his flowers <br />with tender loving care <br /> <br />looking from the balcony <br />the gardener is no longer there.<br /><br />Heather Burns<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/from-the-balcony-2/
