"In my garden, love grows."

 

----Martin Heidegger

 

 

 

"Salmon Queen-you are the one, the Beauty of the Garden,

I marvel at your delicate pink

And your footprint on the inner flower.

You are the elegance of the garden.

You bring joy to the world with your

Splendor."

The Salmon Queen

Rests its beauty in the shade

Of the morning, bringing peace

To its domain.

Salmon Queen, you are the one;

The darling of the morning.

Salmon Queen

You are the one,

The beauty of the garden.

I marvel at the neon brightness of your blossoms.

You bring me beautiful pleasure each

Time I view your loveliness.
