Berkeley Rose Garden

She finds a place neath

A bridge-like structure as

We sit among wisps of fragile

misty strands moving ghostlike

among the bare plants and shrubs,

Insulating us from the entire world.

Yes, thousands of years pass in this

secret place as two persons contemplate

ethereal transient space-time garden.

Her magical smile leaves this one

Unable to respond but to gaze into

green mist shroud and feel the

eternal presence that only

lovers may exchange.
