IMAGINARY GARDEN

We are asked to take a line from a Walt Whitman poem and make it our own.

WHAT NEED?

To me every hour of the light and dark is a miracle;

To be alive at all is too good to be true!

What need is there for angels or other remarkables?

Take a look at life and simply drink-in the view.

EASY?

Nothing is ever easy; life is like a maze.

There are so many twists and turns, so many different ways.

You start out going somewhere and then you change  your mind;

Or else you suddenly realise you've left your purse behind.

The bus breaks down, the train is late, you fall and hurt your knee;

You wander in the garden and you get stung by a bee.

You buy a special outfit, very up-to-the-minute,

And then you find that Alice Spink is looking pretty in it.

Even in your cosy home Life catches you unawares;

You go to write a shopping list....ah, your glasses are upstairs!

'Life wasn't meant to be easy' some famous person said.

That's proved on a daily basis, so get it into your head.
