BOUNTY by GEORGE HERBERT CLARKE

First Line: A CHILD AND A ROSE
Last Line: CHILD, ROSE AND WHITE SOUL OF HIS MOTHER!
Subject(s): CHILDREN; FLOWERS; FRIENDSHIP; MOTHERS; ROSES; CHILDHOOD;

A CHILD and a rose,
A rose and a child;
In the heart of the one repose,
And joy in the heart of the other!

A child and a friend,
And the rose changes hands;
In the heart of the man godsend:
Child, rose and white soul of his mother!
