The Lily of the Valley
Charles G. D. Roberts (1860-1943)
DID Winter, letting fall in vain regret
A tear among the tender leaves of May,
Embalm the tribute, lest she might forget,
In this elect, imperishable way?
Or did the virgin Spring sweet vigil keep
In the white radiance of the midnight hour,
And whisper to the unwondering ear of Sleep
Some shy desire that turned into flower?
How beautiful! I love lilly of the valley and miss them dearly.
I like the contrast between the wood fence, lush leaves, and pristine flowers.
Thank you!!
that fence is really neat. It almost looks artistic, the way every other board is grey and white.
Excellent contrast and love the colors in the wood… sets off the flowers gorgeously!
