A Most Beautiful Garden

The kiss of the sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth,
One is nearer God's heart in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth.

- Dorothy Frances Gurney

I wanted to share with you a beautiful "secret garden" that I discovered at a private, stately home on Historic Hill while visiting Newport, Rhode Island this past weekend. Thanks to the residents for allowing me to come inside to share the beauty of their serene and colorful garden.
