MRS. CHILDERS' GARDEN, 8X6, OIL SOLD



"In the Spring a livelier iris changes on the burnish'd dove;
In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love”

Alfred, Lord Tennyson




An elderly widow lived next door.
She is gone now......
But her garden lives on.





An ode' to Mrs. Childers.

    Lovely floral and poem for Mrs. Childers Carol.
    Have the new people in the home retain her garden?
