Before the scattered roses

Before the scattered roses
cover the lovely verse
in novel dress, the garden
breathes in light, and shadows

meditate. Behind a shadow
and a dim lamp, the rose
asks not why the garden
blooms; a muttered verse

discloses secrets, verses
linger in the deep shadows
of a mysterious garden.
But the blossoming rose
doesn't ask why.
