The Garden Grows Over

The far destination is beckoning Leaving me reckoning with miles to unfold The stars are elusive and I am reclusive A wish-maker out in the cold Look for the bridge Feel for the passage Maybe it's closer than I can imagine The meadow's grown over the path I am traveling Ambitions unraveling, falling away The garden grows over with violets and clover The world is unfolding the wings of my eyes Birch leaves trembling, I am remembering The place I turned off the main road Path less taken I have forsaken convention To travel alone Look for the bridge The meadow's grown over the path I am traveling Ambitions unraveling, falling away The garden grows over with chicory and goldenrod Crickets are older and dragonflies fly The garden grows over with violets and clover The world is unfolding the wings of its eyes The garden grows over with chicory and goldenrod Crickets are older and dragonflies fly The world, it is wise
