A Garden Of Love 1906

A flow'r in a garden of sorrow and shade
was my heart till you found it there,
and took it, for ever a prisoner made,
to your bosom to keep and wear.
And the lonely night of that garden sad
woke to days of delight with you;
your pitying eyes were the sunbeams glad,
and your love was the morning dew.

A flow'r in a garden of roses and rest
is my heart, till this life be o'er,
safe gathered at last to your sheltering breast
in sunshine for ever more.
And the flow'r that withered to sunless shade
shall be blest all the flow'rs above,
with blossom eternal that ne'er can fade
in the light of your endless love.
