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.
