The gardens of time,
Grow in the minds of wise women,
Brimming with spectacular colours,
Baring ripe and delicious fruits.
.
Effortlessly stroll and ponder,
Lose your way,
Discover new parts of yourself,
Seek enlightenment,
Let your toes sink,
Into the rich undergrowth.
.
Visible to those who explore long enough,
Are the colossal imposing Sequoias.
Their unapologetic presence,
And unshakable strength,
Has taken many lifetimes to mature.
.
Jack can keep his beanstalks,
In his pursuit of fame and riches,
I will continue to worship these gardens,
As they have worth far exceeding,
Their weight in gold.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
