My Love, You made for me a garden

filled with care and sown with grace.

Your seedlings flourish,

offerings of life and sustenance.

Each shining leaf extends a blessing

from Your heart to mine,

delicious kisses placed upon my lips,

digested gratefully with prayer.

There is no source but You and through

Your garden light does grow.

Unseen and present yet,

Your harvest makes me one with You.

For this and so much more,

My Gardener, I am daily grateful.
