alone in a garden
I walk as a stranger in the garden of my home
shadows of a past telling me I am justly alone
red roses turn their pedal cheeks from me
ashamed to look upon the wicked man they see
lonely are these moments drawn from a past
foretold perhaps when fatally the die was cast
alone in the garden of my home, now a ghost
wishing for what I wish and want the most.
Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
