THECROCUS’S SOLILOQUY

ByH.F.Gould

Downinmysolitudeunderthe snow, Wherenothingcheeringcan reachme;

Here,withoutlighttoseehow togrow, I’lltrusttonaturetoteachme.

Iwillnotdespair–norbeidle, norfrown,

Lockedinsogloomyadwelling; Myleavesshallrunup,andmy rootsshallrundown, Whilethebudinmybosomis swelling.

Soonasthefrostwillgetoutof mybed, Fromthiscolddungeontofree me,

Iwillpeerupwithmylittle brighthead, Andallwillbejoyfultoseeme. Thenfrommyheartwillyoung petalsdiverge, Asraysofthesunfromtheir focus; Ifromthedarknessofearthshall emerge, AhappyandbeautifulCrocus! Many,perhaps,fromsosimplea flower,

Thislittlelessonmayborrow, Patienttoday,throughits gloomiesthour, Wecomeoutthebrighter tomorrow.
