WILD ASTERS by SARA V. PRUESER

First Line: THEY FLY A SILENT RETREAT
Last Line: WITH BLOSSOMS RARE AND SELECT.
Subject(s): ASTERS; COLORS; FIELDS; FLOWERS; GARDENS & GARDENING; PASTURES; MEADOWS; LEAS;
They fly a silent retreat
From the noisy thronging street,
To live where beauty runs
Beneath the autumn suns
In woodland aisles with space
For all the dyes of their race.
Imbuing a wayside stream
With such a color scheme
As no gardener could effect
With blossoms rare and select.
