Little selfsown flowers


Ere yet the year is one month old

In spite of frost & wind & snow
Bare-bosomed to the quaking cold
Springs little selfsown flowers will blow
& ever kin to early hours
Peep aconites in cups of gold
With frilled leaves muffled round their flowers
Like tender maidens shunning cold
