Inside the Garden: limericks of acceptance
That stranger soon became
someone who had a name,
though one not said,
just one that had spread
through the garden with fame.
Inwards, the shrubs curled,
the flowers faithfully furled,
and time painlessly passed
to forget that horrible past,
all adjusting to this new world.
With the Named one staying from when
the green developed into warmth,
a friendship was bound to begin.
