Mysterious Pathway

On a rainy day one morning in June,
I saw a path by a new moon.

As I strolled through my favorite garden,
Suddenly, someone saw me and said "Beg your pardon!"

He said "Where do you come from, and why are you here?
I ignored him for awhile, and then could see clear.

We was blind and afraid because he was lost,
Was in the gazebo away from the frost.

"Whose garden is this?"? I boldly inquired
"It is one I have often greatly admired.

He said to me quietly, "I was just passing through."
I turned and walked on, the flowers seemed new.

Thank you for your comment, Winterdawn.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
