WE WONDERING BEHOLD by BEULAH WINDLE SCALLIN

First Line: WITH SWELLING JOY
Last Line: OF ENDLESS LOVE AND GROWTH.
Subject(s): HAPPINESS; HEARTS; LOVE; JOY; DELIGHT;
With swelling joy,
Tight folded buds that yield their flowers
When bidden by the sun;

The maple bough
With fondly-guarded, swaying nest
Till fledglings' faring-forth;

With confidence,
The hidden heart-throb's sheltered care
Till it can beat alone;

And marvel at
The Infinite's unfolding plan
Of endless love and growth.
