Within my heart a garden grows,
Wild with violets and fragrant rose.
Bright daffodils line the narrow path,
My footsteps silents as I pass.
Sweet tulips nod their head in rest;
I kneel in prayer to seek God's best.
For round my garden a fence stands firm
To guard my heart so I can learn.
Who should enter, and who should wait
On the other side of my locked gate.
I clasp the key around my neck
And wonder if the time is yet.
If I unlock the gate today,
Would you come in? Or run away?

I just felt that this poem is relevant to what Lijuan and Xiaowen shared at cell today. So, wanted to post it here to share it with you guys. It's one of my favourite poems. And i really think that it paints a very beautiful picture about waiting for the right person God has for each an every single one of us.
