In search of my mother's garden, I found my own
Alice Walker
I could never hope to understand
how my mother's life garden grew
Thanks to her, my advantages and worldview
were quite different than that girl born in Brooklyn
A search for a garden of my own
A garden of thoughts
A garden of hopes
A garden of dreams
A garden of happily ever afters
And a garden of things that were more wonderful
than I could believe
A garden of my own
Planted with seeds from those who went before
To leave to those who will follow
That is how a garden grows from generation to generation
and that is poetiquejustis
The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a
sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a
well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.
Isaiah 58:11
