Image for the poem I want to keep a garden

I want to keep a garden

I want to keep a garden  
Full of nourishment and beauty
A piece of it will always stay  
Evergreen and fruity
Hunger, I shall know it not  
Nor want for entertaining
I shall have all at my finger's reach,  
The product of my toiling!  
If a neighbor in distress  
Should ask me for a blossom,  
I will gladly grant his wish indeed  
A bloom or two, and then some!  
It shall be a garden sanctuary  
A place of peace resplendent  
Where I will spend so many days  
Healthy, wealthy, and content!
