A GOLDEN FRUITAGE.

A MEMORY lay at my heart Of a prayer said long ago; It sweetened my day and burst into song, A harmony rich and low.
A word lay warm at my heart, The word of a friend to me; And it grew in beauty, and burst into bloom, Like a bud of my white rose tree.
A thought came into my heart, A thought from the Heart above; And its fragrance spread to the world without, For the name of the thought was Love.
A memory, and word, and thought! Ye are seeds from the hand above, Sown in true hearts that shall bring ye forth A golden fruitage of Love.
—Good Housekeeping.
