A tribute to the Inner Garden - Poem

[Taikunping avatar ~ Julie Parry]

Peace Garden

Enter the garden, a peaceful place to be

Enter the garden, sit beneath your tree

Enter your inner paradise, the place that fulfils your dreams

Enter serendipity a place fit for Kings and Queens

Enter through the Heart's Door, you can see the light

Enter the Greening Kingdom, a vision of inner sight

Enter the tranquility, it is your right to be

Enter into calmness, a rose garden you will see

Well I do keep myself busy,kinda work-a-holic I'm told..just got back from two days vacation up the Coromandel,posted on it a few minutes ago in the hobbies Group.HERE

I'm stuffed, done a load of trekking up hill and down hill poor legs are sore but it was so worth it..rest up tomorrow its Anzac day,then I'm off to Hamilton for a visit to a friends Friday as I only have 4 days left Annual leave I'm back to work again on Monday next week..I will try and record my playing of the flute out in the Karangahake gorge railway tunnel would be ideal natural acoustics's.. I'm certainly no expert player.. but I like it regardless..be patient I will get round tuit..

Yes,I've been meaning to film playing my own flute,but see I have so many things to do and not enough time to do them all lol..I'll always say I'll get 'a round tuit' one day..my niece said back in response to this,well just what is 'a round tuit'?

When I first heard about this type of drum I wanted one because I loved the sound but I ended up buying a couple of djembes and a Bougarabou.  I was a member of a local drum group and thoroughly enjoyed my experience.  

Maybe one day I will have a hang drum;)

Glad you liked it..That video is in my playlist also..I love hang drumming..

follow the beat of your drummed heart

this is the one

varied and progressive

glide like a swan

"a serene piece of nature to call my own"

treat it with honour

as this is your home

I love your collaboration Vlada

[ënagualí ~ Ꮙℓἇ∂ἇ ኔጡ።]

I breathed into that,.. but I also have to thank Raven for guiding me to the music video,he left his mark in it as it fits perfectly I recon..

Needs to be longer to keep me captivated..but again its just me, I like poems to take me deep into a rabbit hole on a journey, probably cos thats how I write them myself, so I'm being a bit bias aye..sorry I dont mean to offend in any way, just giving a critique review..

So I collaborate [hope you dont mind] to add it to yours above,

so push play on the video below

then read yours then follow into mine to get the whole picture of what I'm meaning

Enjoy!:-

Now I follow you, hear your voice through this garden doorway

the key to the hidden world is thus opened
for all to enter as pure hearts reach for the suns given rays
and eyes are opened to the light of the new dawn

where sunlight filters though our minds
while people yearn & smile..

others squint their eyes & shade their brows

For what the sun gives
the moon takes away
sealing the world into the other side of the looking glass

Then If you step outside into the crystal midnight air
you can feel the moonlight dancing across your skin
As it lights the world below with its hues of pale white
it cools everything it touches making things appear bright

we each feel like ripples upon this universal sea

riding upon the waves

that carries us within existence

waking with the sun again to assume our earthly paths

thoughts of what beauty I have before me

a serene piece of nature to call my own...:o)
