ANGELA & BRIAN

MY SECRET GARDEN ~ BRIAN ~ A 66666 TRIGINTA XXX !

 

IF A DOOR IS SHUT ~ ALWAYS OPEN IT ~ IT MIGHT LEAD TO PARADISE !

 

WHEN I WAS YOUNG ~ I stayed in Wales with My Aunty

She had a wonderful GARDEN for me to play in ......

And a Big Green Door ~ which was set in a ...... 

High Wall too tall to climb ~ Door had no handle !

What*s behind the Door ~ I asked ~ can I open it ?

*NO  NO* My Aunty said ~ Always keep away  from the Green Door !

 

Being a BOY I was determined to go through the Door

So one day ~ when Aunty was out shopping

I pushed it hard and it swung OPEN ! It was Paradise !

I could hear music like Peruvian Pan Pipes which were popular

The Door closed behind me ~ I was in the Enchanted Garden

There were Angels & Blossoms & Butterflies ~ Paths & Steps !

 

I didn*t have a Video Camera but it all videoed into my Brain

Press the button and you will what I saw in 1993 !

Along the Paths were Roses of every Hue and the Steps .....

Led into even more Gardens  ~ some natural ~ some pristine

Flowers of every description ~ and PICNIC TABLES for Lunch !

There were more Marble Statues of Lovely Ladies ~ WOW !

 

There were flowers of every variety ~ I loved the Hollyhocks .....

And Old Stone Buildings like Port Mierion all deserted !

Lots of Doors & Gates and Pillared Colonnades ~ like in Greece

And Avenues of Pergolas covered in Ramblin\' Roses

The Garden went on for ever and ever and ever !

BUT I had too retrace my steps to the Green Door again !

 

There was a Handle on the Garden Side so I pulled it OPEN ......

And slipped through !  As I walked towards the House ~ Aunty arrived

I daren*t tell her I had been through the Green Door and ......

And into the Secret Garden ~ so I told her Id been playing on the Swing !

Strangely ~ when I went back in 1994 the Green Door was bricked up

That was 25 years ago ~ BUT I will never forget it ~ I WAS THERE !

 

Comments please ~ Have you had a similar experience ? Love Brian XOX
