Poem: Sculptured Garden



Sculptured Garden
 
The world lies removed
Sculptured garden's quiet
Only cascading water speaks
And with soothing voice

The world can go on,
For a small time, without me
Sit to take in this peace

    So simple and beautiful, yet so true!

  3. I can completely relate to this - the feeling of utter peace, but also displacement, somehow, that you get from sitting in a quiet garden: "removed" is the perfect word here, because of those positive but also slightly negative connotations that hint at isolation but also promise peace.
