In my Grandparents Garden many a flower did bloom Roses of all colours, daisys pure and white, Snapdragons, petunias, marigolds, hollyhocks so tall; Citrus trees, and walnuts, eucalyptus, to endless height. |

Under the grape arbour many an hour did I spend in quiet meditation; The sweet smell over whelming, the bees and wasps gathering in the nectar; So peaceful! So soothing! No need for medication! |

The essence of this place has defined my Soul, It has helped me pass through this world, From its magic I have drawn Life's goal; Out of their garden my journey had its beginning |

Their Spiritual Peace has contributed to all who have passed by and witnessed its Beauty. May They rest in Gods Peace knowing they have accomplished Their Earthly duty! |

The closest place to Heaven any Soul could ever find; How I have longed to return there - even if just for one more hour; for you see, the greatest thing that grew there ---- LOVE - GODS MOST PRECIOUS POWER! |
