A beautiful garden and I
Like poetastery and blurred vision on a rainy,misty morning it began
A step at a step, slowly like a toddler learning how to walk
Although some of us learnt to walk not so slowly, we learnt supporting ourselves on maize seedlings weeding
Slow, steady-intrinsically moving -but sure
I was sure it was headed for greatness
The first few feet covered by beautiful scenery of flowers-ooh no! beautiful is what Yeats termed as a funny, moking understatement-this transcended beauty
It was more than beautiful, covered by flowers of different colours roses, carnations, peonies, dahlias, alstroemerias, gardenias, lilies, orchids and Daisies
The Daisies as it is in capitals it was more widespread to be precise they were Gerbera Daisies
They were everywhere, looked amazing and masked all the other flowers and its scent was dominant
For those unheedy students of life's alchemy or those jomifwadhi as Agola would say in her novel would presumably say that the whole cacophony was covered by Gerbera Daisies but there were others
Daisies symbolized innocence a connotation from the Victorian era
I wanted to stay in this area and feel the dissonance it was creating -i wanted to stay longer and enjoy the scent all over and more sneezing-ironical though
But oops the steps were counted, ohh no calculated precisely for that matter
Time was scarse:a hollering voice yelled "Boy, get the hell out of here, match forward, time's gone "
The next few steps were splendid, it presented -as my nursing skills teacher would always remind me when taking history-a magnificent view on its own
Breathtaking-who nose except me-,eye taking-of course it's a view
Long pines and cedars covered it, they looked Yummy-Justin don't sue me credit goes to you-It ain't my Intentions-it's not late to say Sorry though
The pines as it us with those who love puns were friendly, charming and alluring inherently -all I could do was a Hello!
In response was a little swaying of their long perfectly shaped branches followed by needle-drop silence then a little falling of leaves
It felt bad seeing their leaves fall-they looked damn good with those chlorophyll filled little industries which added life to these things Wangari fought for
Little did I know the fallen leaves in turn provided manure and some little mulch
That's why I still hold my rather primitive belief-no uncaused cause_everything happens for a reason
I continued walking-I'm not a stringent lover of woods that's why NBA ain't my sport
I enjoyed the fresh air emanating from them
But I still looked back and saw the Daisies, though this time the vision was smudged and no scent anymore
It's like all these pines and cedars vaporised all the scent from the flowers
Time was moving, clock was tickling faster and I had to move on, not knowing where I'm moving to
What I had in mind that finally there will be wining and dining
Some guaranteed bliss at the terminal and I kept moving
The land started inclining against me-it was getting steeper with each step
The next few feet I was in a jumbled area to say -stop judging me
Wait, lemme explain, it's my perspective -it contained patches of strongly scented beaitiful Daisy that I saw at first place, followed by thorny bushes of acacia dominant in my county -though these seemed more worse and feary than those in my place
Underneath them were scattered grown old chunks of ugly grass
Then they trail those long beautiful pines and cedars
All these mixed up presenting un indescribable dissonance
All the same they never excited me but in mind I had that happiness at the end
The ground wasn't a better place either, sometimes it was sandy, then stony then all of a sudden it was all muddy
All these changed within minutes, it presented again some smooth,good looking green grasses carpet like phenotypically those found in Emirates Stadium
It could diappear again and present a thorny ground -hurtful to the feet
It was awful
I couldn't figure out all this marvel
And I'm yet to
The weather itself was frightening -hailstorms,misty and freezy in a minute then the next moment -Atacama would be a refuge
Dusty, dry, low humidity, scorching sun and dry winds would prevail- a weather I only envision when people describe my countyplace
The next moment it presented a calm weather, amazing sunshine and a cool breeze-a place you can think of for your honeymoon
Yes your honeymoon, as this weather came with it a beautiful scent that attracted friendly bees of all calibre
With this and illumination from moonlight- it was perfect
But this never lasted for a minute _the worse weather was dorminant
I guess I'm correct to say so though the human brain and its aura is engineered to perceive and hold on to that negative part
Unfortunately I've not moved up for the next stage is still blurred to me
I'm at this stage witnessing all these but a constant song of the euphoria at the end keeps me motivated
Note I've not said who I'm in this for I don't know either but I'm sure I'm not alone for even Alan Walker knows
But I keep moving with some stringendo...
oooh well ....do I have something to say?
