Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Crocus and Wintergreen
Gain the Spring! Again the Easter lily; Again the soft, warm air with odours rife; Again from the dark mould of their entombing, In all their lovely robes of radiant hue, The crocus and the violet are blooming, The self-same flowers our earliest childhood knew; Again the birds in joyous flocks are winging, Chirping their notes of love and nesting days; Again the sound of happy children singing Along the lanes and in the woodland ways.
