©The Crocus
Girl Fairy
Crocus of yellow, new
and gay;
Mauve and purple, in brave array;
Crocus white
Like a cup of light,
Hundreds of them smiling up,
Each with a flame in its shining cup
By the touch of the warm and welcome sun
Opened suddenly. Spring's Begun
Dance then, fairies, for joy, and sing
The song of the coming again of Spring.
