Within my heart a garden grows, wild with violets and fragrant rose. Bright daffodils line the narrow path, my footsteps silent as I pass. Sweet tulips nod their heads in rest; I kneel in prayer to seek God's best. For round my garden a fence stands firmto guard my heart so I can learnwho should enter, and who should waiton the other side of my locked gate. I clasp the key around my neckand wonder if the time is yet. If I unlocked the gate today, would you come in? Or run away? . Robin Jones Gunn
