The garden

by EnRoute

As the rain falls gilded Hearts are tempered. They fell together but crashed apart Soft nothings out of reach to pamper The drops fed my hunger but never filled my heart. That's a lie told by anger the last line. The waters yielded flowers beautiful but weak to time Though they bare fruit and seeds without roots it can never last as do trees We are the soil for our love and enjoyment We are the plow of our perseverance and faith We are our beasts of burden and sacrifice
