    About this ebook

    Lines from the poems in this book

    In the garden of my heart a lovely flower grows
    Wildflowers to me will always be the loveliest flowers that grow
    Whenever I see yellow daffodils I forget my age and ills
    Your love and your gentle smile are all that makes my life worthwhile
    The world needs no wars tis love and love alone we need
    Joy is the most beautiful word I know it seems to glow like glistening snow
    How could one small birds heart hold the bliss of such a store of happiness
    My heart is full of songs of the sea - and all of the songs are memories to me
    Her heart is like the ocean never quiet ..never still
    Songs of waves that roll and ride out to sea on a swift running tide
    Just for a day Id like to play I was a little mermaid child and do things wild
    The days work is over - worries cast aside we two sit together alone at eventide

      On the first day of fall, hazy wisps of soft, gray fog hung over the brook in front of our home, disguising the thick verdant undergrowth on the banks and appearing to be in an all-day holding pattern. I should have known better. As is often the case
