A Summer Smile by Larry D. Foreman (Oct 2007)
I love to walk the garden grounds When my footprints leave a path Across the dewy grass. I hear the jays and mockingbirds Proclaim their raucous songs While doves add a gentle mourn. I walk among the roses thinking, A rose is like a summer smile That greets my eyes with love. Flowers, shrubs, and trees are homes To moths and bees that draw my eyes To watch them at their work. When I am gone and walk no more Around this garden way, My memories will be my eyes and ears.
