MY LITTLE GARDEN by GWENDOLEN ALLEN

First Line: I LOVE MY LITTLE GARDEN
Last Line: AND SEEING GOD'S HANDIWORK ALL AROUND, I NO LONGER FEEL AFRAID.
Subject(s): CONTENTMENT; GARDENS & GARDENING;
I love my little garden,
It is a lovely place
Where I can plant and tend my blossoms rare,
And have bouquets each day and some to spare.

I love my little garden,
It is a restful place
Where I can hear the birds send forth their songs of praise,
And watch the setting sun at the end of glorious days.

I love my little garden,
It is a happy place
Where I can go after the refreshing shower of rain
And see the scarlet rambler flash the plea, "Be young again."

I love my little garden,
It is a helpful place
Where I can go when life seems hard and I need aid;
And seeing God's handiwork all around, I no longer feel afraid.
