Visiting the hidden garden ...





Penelope led me though the narrow door into the hidden garden - 

A high wall enclosed the quiet lawns - 

A pool reflected the leaves of overhanging trees -  

Water lilies were gentle crowns - 

High hedges bordered gravelled paths - 

Mysterious shubberies glistened with last night's raindrops -

White roses bloomed in silent arbours - 

A fast flowing stream ran through the dripping greenery - 

Beyond the garden were the wide river and the gracious house - 

Lichened sundials had hoarded golden hours -
