Love's Joy

DOROTHY M. KINGDON

"Happiness is spiritual, born of Truth and Love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it."—SCIENCE AND HEALTH WITH KEY TO THE SCRIPTURES, by Mary Baker Eddy, page 57.

As roses from the one great Giver
Of all loveliness
Receive their beauty,
And, as they
Give out impartially to all alike
The selfsame color, shape, and charming fragrance,
Giving and ever giving without weariness
Their sweetness to the atmosphere around,
So let me also share with one and all
The deep unfailing joy God gives to me,
That it may permeate the atmosphere of thought
With universal, spiritual tenderness,
And bring to troubled sense
Soul's dear delight.
