Lead me thru the garden gate and show me what grows there. 

Or' the walls grown grey with age hang stalks of maiden hair.

Take my hand my one true love I am yours alone. 

For in this place my heart feels joy the likes I've never known.

Vespar sparrows sing their song and fill me with delight.

Ever more my heart will hold, the mem'ry of this night

Welome to Gather. Your poem reminds me of the hymn, " In the Garden"
Sandi K. Sep 11, 2007, 2:44am EDT
That's really weird because In the Garden is one of my favorite hymns. I plan to sing it in church when I get up the nerve.
Thank you

Thank you. Any friend of Lynns is a friend of mine. And she's even greater in person.
She's a keeper. My best friend and don't know what I'd do without her.

Beware I say! Yes, beware of Elsie's dandelions, but if you need your shoes shined, Marge's llama is the best.
