In the garden of the heart
the seeds of love are sown
tended with great care
watered well and grown
till beauty bursts forth
in radiant bloom
from a heart that
once knew
only shadow and gloom.

Seeds spring from the dark
and greet the new dawn.
Love is always in season
Have faith.
Life always grows on.
