The Forbidden Garden

A forbidden

Garden, hidden

Behind a wall.

Yet, there are kinks

And chinks

To explore

In many a wall,

For

He who would climb

To reach the divine.

And a wall

May fall.

Revealing the garden, once forbidden

For which he has striven.

But, having reached the divine

And tasted her sweet wine,

How many men,

Having satiated their desire,

Retire,

And plan their next climb?
