Default Suggestions for approach to a path

OK, I'm looking for suggestions on what to do with a little bit of
garden that looks like this:

Pond--XXX | |--------Path
XXX | | -------Herbs/Fronted by trellis/clematis
---------CCC----
/GGGGGGG B\
|GGGGGGGGGG B|
|GGGGGGGGGGGGGGBB|

G = grass
B = Border

The gap in the middle is currently a rather scruffy end to the lawn and
some white stone gravel, further in corner are 6 small slabs before a 6"
border filled with some mid level flowers. There is also a birdtable on
the slabs, although this may get moved in winter to be nearer the house.
Anybody got any ideas for neatly finishing the grass while not
obstructing the (brick) path? I guess I could get rid of the gravel and
grass all of it, but that sounds a little boring. The gravel is the same
height as the grass meaning that there's no neat edge, I don't really
want to dig below the grass level as I've tried this before in another
garden and just ended up with a nice puddle every time it rained!

Thanks
