Garden As Though You Will Live Forever


Garden Poem of the Day

Day's End
By Edwin W. Doctor

The twilight comes to cool the air,
The shadows lengthen on the sod,
Soft breezes blows the garden through,
The leaves and blows sway and nod.

On garden path, in sheltering hedge,
In treetops dark and cloudless sky,
The evening birds awake to life,
To stir; to sing and upward fly.

And flowers, warm with summer heat,
Expand to greet the softened light
And shed, to show their gratitude,
A fragrance in the summer night.

Now all is peace, from meadows near
A cooling mist blows o'er the wall
And strangely lonesome in the night
There comes the thrush's silvery call.
