    Bleak, keen and drear....
  • Windflowers
    When I was little and good
    I walked in the dappled wood
    Where light white windflowers grew,

    And Spring itself came with her;
    She stirred the fire of life to flame,
    She called all music hither....

    The enchanted hour,
    The magic bower,
    Where, crowned with roses,
    Love love discloses....
