a secret door opens into a garden
enter this garden and rest awhile
walk in this quiet place, in the flowered stillness
where there is quiet and everything feels friendly
the flowers and the leaves turn to greet you
and the sky is aglow with infinite refreshment
lay aside the heavy garment of the world
of darkness, of forboding
put on this shining raiment
come to the fountain and drink of these waters
let them wash your spirit clear
