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. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NOVEMBER GARDEN: AN ELEGY by ANDREW HUDGINS AN ENGLISH GARDEN IN AUSTRIA (SEEN AFTER DER ROSENKAVALIER) by RANDALL JARRELL ACROSS THE BROWN RIVER by GALWAY KINNELL A DESERTED GARDEN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS NOT THE SWEET CICELY OF GERARDES HERBALL by MARGARET AVISON AN OLD GARDEN by HERBERT BASHFORD THE BEAUTIFUL by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
