I GOD IN NATURE I By Nellie Hammel In this world of fuss and hurry, , Let us hesitate; Just a moment stop our rushing, . Just a moment wait. • God, through nature, speaks, but softly, ' Gentle words of love. ' He in nature paints the message. That will lead above. If we hurry past the sunsets, 1 Birds and trees and flowers, We will miss the natural guide posts I To His heavenly bowers. I We will miss His tender blessing, Miss that which we seek. For true happiness will be found, Onlv when we meet — God in Nature GRANDMOTHER ' S GARDEN By Mary Harrell I draw a line at kissing, Said she with accents fine. He was a football player. And so he crossed the line. And what is so rare as a garden of flowers. Borders of phlox and of roses great bowers, • Marigolds, bluebells, petunias in rows, . Nodding their heads where the wild stream flows, • Hollyhocks, jonquils, and all sorts of daisies, | Bowing in the wind as if they were ladies, • Modest violets, bold tulips, and flags, | While behind them the slow aster lags. Crocuses, hyacinths, ragged robins so blue, Pinks, lavender, fragrant heliotrope, too, | Zinnias, coxcombs, yellow daft ' odowndillies, j Tall ladies ' fingers, and Easter ' s white lilies. | There the south wind dwells throughout the day, t Causing the flowers to and fro to sway Just like the garden of Anne of old, j It holds color, fragrance and beauty untold. j
