...

She steals the ripened fruit off my tree

Love slowly withers on the vine

Jasmine's in bloom

I know that you will soon be gone

The only woman I know

To hurt me so

And the flowers will grow

In my garden

She left her lipstick and her stale perfume

I left a note upon the wall

(it said) Be sure of what you've got

Cause girl you're not

The only woman I know To hurt me so

And other flowers will grow

In my garden

You're not the only woman I know

To hurt me so

And other flowers will grow

In my garden

In my garden

In my garden the wild magnolia grows

And there's a rose in the window

Where a lover's heart is snared on a jealous thorn

With the change of the seasons

I let you slip from my hand, now I know

Love is pain

Pain is truth

And the truth is it's over and done

The only woman I know To hurt me so

And other flowers will grow

In my garden

In my garden

In my garden

In my garden

flowers and trees from India

Then something occurred to me... Why not share some of that immortal bliss with each and every one who visits The House in the Roses?
From the humblest window box to the finest parterre, each garden has its own distinct character--a verdant reflection of the person who created it. So here's what I'm thinking.... Let's celebrate the first day of summer with a party--a garden party!From the oldest to the youngest...
