FLOWERS by WINIFRED LUCAS

First Line: OH TROPIC LOVE, TO THEE WE BRING
Last Line: TO STAR THY DEATHLESS FIELD.
Subject(s): FLOWERS;
OH tropic Love, to thee we bring
The flora of delight
That childish fingers pluck, and fling
From out the infinite!

Through her inevitable sleep,
Would wistful Memory yield
The fragile things she may not keep,
To star thy deathless field.
