\nsprinkled with sunbeams bright,
\na garden of pure enchantment
\nsoothes my heart tonight.
\nAnd as the sun prepares to set,
\nthe day beginning to slip
\naway and out of sight,
\nbutterflies and fairies
\ngrace the flowers and trees
\nand steal my heart away.
\n<\/em><\/font> <\/font><\/p>\n
\n<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n
\nthis magical place,
\nI find the words to describe
\nthe treasures I find,
\nimages that capture
\nwhat I wanted to say;
\nmy soul stirred,
\nmy heart transported,
\nif only for a time,
\nas I stroll through
\nits crystal-lined pathways
\nand inhale the fragrances
\nthat sustain me there.<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n
\n<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n
\nand the magic that I’ve found,
\nI go on about my day once more,
\nback to reality for a little while,
\nmore refreshed,
\nmy outlook renewed,
\nthan I was before.<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n
