Book Description

Excerpt from Poetic Reveries Stanzas. A young sweet flower just fainting lay, Upon the withering grass, And summer winds had gone away, A pleasant hour to pass, Beside a glittering stream they loved, And often rested near, To catch the bright refreshing drops From waves so blue and clear. And butterflies with plumage bright Went fluttering on their way, And would not linger in their flight, Or stop their heedless play, To give the poor forgotten flower, One wavelet of their wing To fan it into life again, Or shade across it fling.
