The Sunbeam and the Crocuses.
One cold and dreary winter’s day • A sunbeam sped around, And woke to life the little bulbs, Asleep beneath the ground. And soon they stirred and softly rose And stretched their petals up, Till each unfolded to the skies A dainty coloured cup! How pretty then the grass appeared, And what a pleasing sight To see the colours ’mid the green, All purple, gold, and white. And when it saw the crocuses. The sunbeam danced above; Then stooped to kiss them, ev’ry one, And beamed with joy and love! Constance M. Lowe
