The Gardener's Creed I believe in good brown earth, sun and soil, seed and birth Rest is sweetest when it comes after happy toil I believe in miracles, bud and leaf and fruit Spring into loveliness from the hidden root. I believe that He who made roses and birds and bees Wanted us to make His world beautiful to see, Meant us to be gardeners, making green things grow. I believe we do His work when we plant and sow. I believe that He whose hand fashioned Eden's flowers put into the heart of man love of trees and flowers. That is why a garden gives us blessings manifold ... Health and healing, contentment, peace and joys untold. Author Unknown |
