The Garden / by renee mckenna

The Garden

We have this space

between us

Fertile ground

Graced by warmth, passion and creativity

Like a secret garden

It is safe

Blooming untrimmed, With wild vines and tropical flowers

The air is sweet and clean

We make love, impassioned in the sunlight

And share deep thoughts on the soft emerald grass

There are no walls or fences

We are free to come and go

But we meet here often in joy, in desire and inspiration

Our voices need not be soft here

But we listen and hear each other easily

And laugh deeply

And often

And when we part

We travel back to our individual lives

On separate paths

Not secret

But not shared

Until we meet again

In that blessed, sacred space

The garden of our love
