MY QUIET GARDEN
The drowsy time before I sleep is best:
I seek the quiet garden in my mind
Where love and hope, like flowers intertwined
In fragile beauty, leave my heart refreshed.
My dreams in bright profusion sweetly dressed,
To make a garland of my thoughts, designed
To give me peace and joy; for I can find
The memories of you, like petals pressed.
So I in rosy thoughts draw close to you,
And meditate the wonder of a love
That yields such sweet bouquet of reverie;
Each dream a fragrant bloom of lovely hue,
Each thought a budding prayer to God above
To bless this blooming path you walk with me.

I was very impressed with Sherrill Cannon’s expert use of rhyme. Not only does the text flow smoothly and rhythmically, it weaves a story that totally makes sense and stays on target without fail due to forced rhyme. And because it is done so well and is so comfortable and fun to read, the reader and listener will be quite entertained
