Subject(s): Gardens & Gardening
Daylight has faded now,
Low droops the willow bough,
Darkness reigns here.
Perfume from scented stocks,
Dim pathways limned with rocks
Guarding the four-o'clocks,
Darkness reigns here.
Mallows are wet with dew,
Poppies are drowsy, too,
Night sky is near;
Now teeming day is through;
Darkness reigns here.
