NIGHT-BLOOM, PUNAHOU by PHILIP H. DODGE

First Line: O DO YOU KNOW
Last Line: O PUNAHOU!

O do you know
That stone wall in its green by day,
By night a cloud, a milky way
Not stars, but like the broidered grace
Of flowers that weave a scarf of lace
Apart, apart from glare of day?
Thou hast indeed a wondrous lei,
O @3Punahou!@1
