Flora

In a dainty robe of green
Comes the nodding daffadilly
And the stately Easter lily;
In the meadows cowslips shimmer,
Crocuses with dewdrops glimmer;
April's smile and May's soft splendor
Linger o'er us gentle, tender;
Fair forget-me-nots convene
In the most delightful places;
Mount and vale are wrapped in glory,
Greylock doffs his tippet hoary,
And Wachusett stands new crowned
Thanks to Flora, queen of graces;
Laurel draped and daisy gowned.
