Excerpt from A Dream of a Garden: And Other Poems A Dream of a Garden. I have a dream of a garden fair, Where all that is bright is blooming, Wallflower and jasmine and pinks are there, The sunny air perfuming. Rich are the holly-hedges green, And thick the laurel-bushes, Where the blackbirds build 'mid the leafy screen, With the finches and the thrushes. The hollyhock rears his stately head Above the soft grass-alley, And the peony blooms, and a shady bed Of lily of the valley. A rosebed spreads its clusters bright Of the sweetest flowers e'er growing, Old Tuscany roses pink and white, And moss and blush-rose blowing. Down on the grass at early day, Comes the blackbird mellow-throated, And up on the leafy walnut spray Sings the thrush, the golden-noted. Oh! I see those garden-slopes again, With Spring's rich colours flooded, Ranunculus, hyacinth, tulip, then, And bright anemone budded.
