Subject(s): Gardens & Gardening
Trickling water
Musically falls,
Turning the wheels of the mill;
Beyond, our lake,
Where the sea gull calls --
People are strangely still.
The hush of the garden
Offers peace
In the hectic rush of the day;
In November its motion
And growth will cease,
But its memory will stay!
