A Garden Quarrel
The oak tree and (he violet had a quarrel, And the oak tree said, "I am so his and taU, I am so eery beautiful and stately. But you are very slender and so small." The violet never whispered one'-pndc word, But tossed its pretty purple head in scorn, Then closed its eyes and folded in its petals. And never Woke again until the morn■ —Original, by Deiphine Learning (10).
