UP CLOVER LANE by ANNETTE WYNNE

First Line: UP CLOVER LANE AND DAISY STREET
Last Line: Touching with my head the sky
Subject(s): FLOWERS;

UP Clover Lane and Daisy Street
Small folks crowd with hurrying feet,
Up and down and back again,
Just like hurrying human men;
Up and down and in between.
Walls of waving living green.
What to me's a dainty stem
Is a towering thing to them,
And to them I know that I
Am a giant standing high,
Touching with my head the sky.
