| Life did not bring me silken gowns,
Nor jewels for my hair, Nor signs of gabled foreign towns In distant countries fair, But I can glimpse, beyond my pane, a green and friendly hill, And red geraniums aflame upon my window sill. The brambled cares of everyday,
And if my dreamings ne'er come true,
Red Geraniums by Martha Haskell Clark My apologies for being late this week. Thought I had next week. Time flies. :) |
