Surrender
Albeit completely man-made, sculpted by hand, This botanical garden is all the more natural, Hardly redolent of artificiality, For being so profusely planted with exotic flowers and trees.
Indeed, it asks nothing of us, Who come here seeking a momentary stay against stress, But submission of our psyches, to its calming balms, And a willingness to let our senses override our intellects.
This glorious April afternoon, My only motivation for exploring these blessed premises Is to locate the Koreanspice viburnums And surrender to their sweet, intoxicating fragrance.
