IN THIS PLACE
Water flows in gaps and spaces,
Turns and falls
like time
The garden smiles as good folk dress her with their gratitude
Laughter echoes through the twisting trees where birds and rabbits dart
The gentle tracks of roaming deer call magic to the dance
At dusk a breeze unfolds the evening
To the beat of nature’s heart
shadows play
bats zig zag by
beneath the twinkling stars
The burly night owl hoots her prayer
such beauty holds this place
The forest sings her good night song and I am filled with grace
'In this place', a poem by Jenny Lynne Sessions aka Jen-ix, was kindly passed on to us by Sarah and Oliver in celebrationof the Open Gardens 2023.
