GAY GARDENS
GOLDEN GLORIES The buttercup is like a goMenonp, The marigold is like a golden frill, The daisy with a golden eye looks up. And golden spreads the flag beside the rill. And gay and golden nods the daffodil; The gorsy common swells a golden sea, The cowslip hangs a head of golden tips, And golden drips the honey which the bee Sucks from sweet hearts of flowers, and stores and sips. —Christina RossettL
