Poem
Coming To The Garden Long-lost secrets at Misselthwaite Manor. Mistress Mary moves from self-centeredness to self-awareness, leading to self-healing. This tale's secret seems simple but not so. A space to sense one's spiritual serenity, children seek silence in a stillness place to go. *Nature's worlds open in a hidden garden.* Inside The Walls Overgrown, returned tragically wild, thistle to roses, red curtain banquets. Lilies, larkspur, wildflowers, ivy 'n ferns, transforming passion in perennials. Tend nature's unknown order in an air of grand garden's restorative powers. *Lilias left a inner refuge for us.* Sounds And Surroundings Amidst such soulful moors, meadows, marshlands or seas o' streams as wilderness wanders, in wailing winds where Colin's cries are heard. Waters glisten as they slide slowly o'er cresting murmurings of our brother rocks as it mindfully meanders in song. *Crippled cries can be heard on the moors.* Touch The Divine This enchanted Eden, "bit of earth" in resurrection it proved its worth. Animals, plants conscious to humankind, a sentient kiss to roses, forbidden friends. For all its magic nature displayed, through one's own mind all fears are allayed. *See sublime divine in living beings.* Living, Thinking Things Robin Redbreast chirps, chirps at a lost crease where the key was kept that unlocks wonder, the green gate to the walled mansion's mind. When beautiful, positive thoughts to push out the ugly, new life imagined! Two thoughts cannot ever be in one place. *Listen to Dickon's voice, it will still sound.* Nature Of Love Between sky 'n soil all life is noble affection for all castes is knowable. Humans build walled castles with money nature sparks the breath of life from nothing. Mary Lennox sought true meaning of other's happiness and found her heart's salvation. *Master Craven, blind to his own sorrow.* Be Good, Be Well The children will let all others inside - a garden, a secret space - one can hide. Where everyone becomes well by doing well, good actions leave less room for the bad ones. Worldly work we must do on ourselves. Miss Mary speaks truth to herself and to them. *When no one was left, Mary was not alone.* Notes: Free verse, seven stanza, seven lines each, 49 text lines (seven subtitles, 57 lines total). Opinion analysis with some Eastern thought commentary on Frances Hodgson Burnett's 1911 classic, The Secret Garden, romantic novel. Opinion/comments on this multi-level, children's/adult story: Theosophy, Christian Science, New Thought and Positive Thinking - ideas of the era. (Last lines of each stanza make a summary poem of secrets)
