BETTY'S BLUSHES by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS

First Line: HER BLUSHES ARE A THING TO SEEK
Last Line: MY HEART HAS GONE A-MAYING.
Subject(s): BLUSHING;
Her blushes are a thing to seek,
A wonder to remember;
They dawn upon her snowy cheek
Like sunrise in December.

They rest upon the tender snow,
As fire from summer straying.
Dear Love! before her blushes go
My heart has gone a-Maying.
