THE BIRTH OF THE FLOWERS by MARY MCNEIL SCOTT FENOLLOSA

First Line: GOD SPOKE! AND FROM THE ARID SCENE
Last Line: HE SMILED, AND THERE WERE FLOWERS.
Subject(s): FLOWERS;

God spoke! and from the arid scene
Sprang rich and verdant bowers,
Till all the earth was soft with green—
He smiled, and there were flowers.
