on the hand that bestow them
PRAYER
without a reward,
Not in silver or gold but in joy from the Lord---
You cn't light a candle to show others the way
Without feeling the warmth
of that bright little ray---
And you can't pluck a rose, all fragrant with dew,
Without part of its fragrance
remaining with you

and adds fragrance to the air,
But it is also my cathedral
and my quiet place to prayer....
So little do we realize
that the glory and the power
Of He who made the universe
lies hidden in a flower.

of peace and solitude
For it will help to change your attitude
I can sit here for hours
with the beautiful array of flowers
Look at the red ones over there
Smell the fragrance fill the air
The birds are merrily building a nest
raising a family is what they do best
listen and you will hear them singing a song
For this beautiful sound happens all day long
Buttterflies are fluttering all about
It's a lovely sight without a doubt
The tress are swaying in the breeze
My garden always seem to put me at ease
It bring me to humility
to be surrounded by such tranquility
So please, come sit on my garden bench and look around
and listen to the wonderful sounds
And soon you too will see the beauty and grace
My Garden is just a wonderful place
