MY GARDEN, by ETHEL ANNETTE GIFFORD First Line: Come where the columbine and roses too Last Line: There in the golden silence with god. Subject(s): Gardens & Gardening | ||||||||
Come where the columbine and roses too Are fragrant with the evening dew, And the stars deck the sky like a queen, Where foamy white clouds are seen, Out where the soft breezes blow, To a place of peace that I know -- Where the leaves whisper and sigh, And soft shadows in the moonlight lie -- Where all nature breathes of love, And the moon smiles down from above -- Where tall poplars gleam and nod, There in the golden silence with God. | 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 AFRICAN CHIEF by WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT |
