GIFT, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: This is mint and here are three pinks
Last Line: In many gardens.


THIS is mint and here are three pinks
I have brought you, Mother.
They are wet with rain
And shining with it.
The pinks smell like more of them
In a blue vase:
The mint smells like summer
In many gardens.
