Sweet Yellow Primroses

Voice of Spring


"Come, I come! ye have
called me long, I come o'er the
mountain with light and song:
Ye may trace my step o'er 
the
wakening earth, by the winds
which tell of the violet's birth,
by the primrose-stars in the
shadowy grass, by the green
leaves, opening as I pass."

~ Felicia D. Hemans ~
