For Prize Contest.

In memory of my parents who always had a garden of old-fashion flowers, I planned a garden at my home,- and planted the same kind of flowers they use to have. (32) words.

It proved such - a delight, in the beauty of color - and fragrance of blossoms, that I find great happiness in my garden each year. (56)

It is nature's free offering throughout the season, I have fresh bouquets for - all occasions, until the hardest frost takes away the petunia's, that seem so reluctant to leave. (85)

I find it relieves a nervous headache to work -among the flowers, they grow so silently and abundantly for me. (105)
