MY GARDEN OF DREAMS 
“There are gardens that are outbursts of rhythmic expression of purest idealism as truly as the 
noblest poem ever written. There are garden effects that are pure lyrics, garden scenes charmingly 
idyllic. There are gardens as free and spontaneous as the outbursts of a Blake or the delicious 
melodies of a Proctor, gardens that have all the melodies and grace of ene of Swinburne’s creations. 
There are gardens as rich in expression as the poetry of Keats, others as chaste and pure under 
classic restraint as the poems of Matthew Arnold, or varied in poetic elements, yet with complete 
and even balance, as the sustained composition of Tennyson. Nature is limitless in her works and 
moods. It needs only that the garden poet understand her moods and have skill in using her gifts 
” 
to give her voice.
