Mind Gardens

Once upon a time, there was a garden on a high hill

Standin' green and [Incomprehensible] against the sea

And there the sun came and the rain pourin' downthe garden grew and splattered bits of color on the ground

And took shape and symmetry all around

There came winds, driven and howlin'

There came snow and

I feared for the garden

So I built a wall and another, roofed it over, thick and strong

I kept it from the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune

But when the sun came and the gentle rain of spring

They could not find the garden behind those walls

It would have died, safely, securely, died

But as I watched and as

I learnedI tore the walls all down, the garden still lives
