OUR GAR]DE>T 



It was dawn when 1 entered our garden. 

 Where the dewdrops sparkling so bright^ 

 Made me feel that the spirit of beauty 

 Had adorned it during the night 

 With gems of purest water 

 Transient^but all the more rare. 

 So that when 1 oame to our garden 

 Itnight find it most wondrous and fain 



The gossamer web of the spider 

 As it swayed in the sweet ladened breeze. 

 In which mingled the perfume of roses 

 Of heliotrope and sweet peas, 

 Made a banner of purest silver 

 Fit for the Fairy race. 

 Who watched asl entered our garden 

 For the dawn of joy on my face.
