"The Bishop's Rose Garden"
(As written by Myself, circa 6th grade)
Even before the masque of Winter's fury,
He toiled for a place of perennial joy.
A garden, simple, yet elegant.
His head was always full of thoughts, he lived in thoughts.
But he was a simple man.
He never knew Love in the eyes of the world,
But he understood a deeper, greater love.
He was a dreamer by Nature.
Behind the old church yard in the gloaming,
He would toil for a burst of perennial Joy.
He lived in his world of thoughts.
He toiled in the old church yard.
He dwelt in the Bishop's rose garden.

Thank you! I hadn't seen this poem in years, just recently recovered it from the old poetry.com. It was written a long long time ago, one of my very first poems. Innocence and naivety were exactly what i was going for.
