The Secret Garden

The secret garden was seen by Mary

Entering it, all the plants looked starry

The garden was a secret for 10 years

And Mary used to think of it to shed her tears

Little Mary was new to the vast place

But soon she made that old home her base

For that reason they shifted her to a new area

She was lonely, sad, angry and bored

Not even a slight smile she could afford

She did not know how to wear her sock

For this reason people even used to mock

She slowly got used to the people

For something new she used to steeple

She made friends with Dickon a boy

With him she could feel her inner joy

She sat on her bed, had a lot to deny

In the silence she could hear a faraway cry

She made friends with Martha the maid

Little Mary never felt betrayed

She soon found out the faraway cry

It was of her cousin a thin skinny boy

She spent a few hours with him everyday

On his bed the whole day he lay

Every day she used to visit the garden

Her responsibility to build it better, hardened

The garden for 10 years had grown wild

With the help of Dickon they gave it a new style

They did not tell anyone a word

Colin was the one to know on number third

They together worked in the garden

Kept quiet from all as they would never pardon

Finally a day came to reveal the secrets

They garden was soon no more a secret

The others loved to see it come alive

For that, the trio had to strive

A beautiful garden was now in bloom

For more beauty there was plenty of room!
