MY GARDEN
walked in my garden early to- :
S beauty was breath-taking.
nd | felt the urge to Pray.
thanked God for so much beauty,
Or the fragrance sweet and rare:
ut there early in the morning,
offered God this prayer. ,
thanked Him for the poppies
nat herein grow;
ley reminded me of the crosses
nat in France stand row on row.
u the lilies, white and yellow,
Jr the daisies waving there;
he cOrnfiower and the iris,
le roses sweet and fair.
Jacobs ladder reminds me
imbing up the stalk
lie by one they bloom,
to the top.
lie bumble-bees a feasting +
side their little cup
and out they fly
II just another sup.
Nv / come to the cinnamon pink
l wander down the path,
I'd the lovely dainty larkspur,
le sweetest of all the "eraft".
ar Lord, | thank Thee /
r this beauty sweet and rare;
n so glad l have garden,
ID that l can find You there!
