FORGET-ME-NOT, by PEARL GUNN FOWLER First Line: Oh, dear little forget - me - not Last Line: "a hero -- wounded -- has chosen me." Subject(s): Flowers; Imaginary Conversations | |||
Oh, dear little forget-me-not, Why are your petals so blue? Is there a bit of heaven Reflected in softest hue? Tell me, little forget-me-not, Why are you so small? I scarcely can see you growing Beside my garden wall. "Ah! God looked down upon me, That's why my petals are blue; In return I promised Him, To be loyal, kind and true. "Forget me not as you pass by, I'm small, but patient, you see; Stoop down, and look into my soul -- A hero -- wounded -- has chosen me." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest... |
