Daily Prompt:  Gate

Welcome to my garden.
Please enter through the gate.
Come and meet my children
As happily they wait.

There’s Lily, Dahlia and Camellia
Sitting there by the bench.
And Kunal resting by the pond.
As Rose watches from the fence

You can see Myrtle’s hiding in the back.
Petunia’s playing shy.
Begonia’s lounging in the shade.
Daisy’s dancing toward the sky.

Enjoy the sweet aromas
Of cocktails served on the breeze.
Drink in all the flavors
Hear the buzzing bees.

Then sit back and imagine
How bland our life would be.
If God had not provided
The beauty we now see.
