Where we can sit in silence
and enjoy our own thoughts
away from everyone.
A park bench by a pond
dedicated to someone
who liked the view.
A church pew
where people sit
and ask god to see them through.
Everyone has their own place
that gives them peace of mind.
A place to rest their weary body
and leave
the rest of the world behind.
Their own space
a place of solitude.

I wish I had green fingers,
The flowers would grow strong,like my love for you.The roses would blush at your beauty,a sunflower to fill your day with brightness.Oh, how I wish I had green fingers,with the touch to make every flower grow.There would be a cascade,of colours and perfume to fill the air,as we walked through my garden fair.
