Memories Of my Garden

This Garden that looks forgotten

Was once a happy place

Home to chickens , dogs and bunnies

And a smiling little face

 

It played host to children’s parties

Cricket and football games

I still hear the busy chatter

And the calling of their names

 

And through the kitchen window

I see all of Danny’s things

A trampoline and goal posts

And remember the joy they would

 

This year no one has picked the apples

From my favourite little tree

Cut the lawn or planted flowers

Then sat outside to drink some tea

 

In this garden a seed was planted

And a path laid  to some where new

Its been a long and lonely journey

To where all of my dreams have come true

 

This garden is not forgotten

And will have its day again

Another family a new beginning

To give it life like the rain
