# Voice of Flowers/Transplanted Flowers

TRANSPLANTED FLOWERS.
There's many a flower that proudly springs
 Amid the gaudy world's parterre,
Caress'd by Fashion's painted wings,
 To Folly dear.
Whose flaunting petals woo the sun,
 Heedless of Beauty's transient lot,
But wither ere the day is done,
 Unwept, forgot.
Yet some there are that bloom apart,  With meekly consecrated charm. Whose gifts of fragrance cheer the heart
 Like healing balm.
O'er the blest spot, where erst they grew,
 The eye of Love its tears shall shed,
And Pain and Penury bedew
 Their funeral bed.
But, 'neath an everlasting beam
 They smile, where no dark cloud descends;
Theirs was that hallow'd incense stream,
 Which heavenward tends.
Unfading, lo! they live, they bloom—
 Transplanted by His culturing hand,
Who bade them seek beyond the tomb
 A better land.
# Voice of Flowers/The Tulip and Eglantine

THE TULIP AND EGLANTINE.
The Tulip called to the Eglantine;
 "Good neighbor, I hope you see
How the throngs that visit the garden come
 To pay their respects to me.
"The florist admires my elegant robe,
 And praises its rainbow ray,
Till it seems as if, through his raptured eyes
 He was gazing his soul away."
"It may be so," said the Eglantine;
 "In a humble nook I dwell,
And what is passing among the great,
 I cannot know so well.
But they speak of me, as the flower of love,
 And that low, whispered name,
Is dearer to me, and my infant buds,
 Than the loudest breath of fame."
# Voice of Flowers/The White Lily

THE WHITE LILY.
TO A YOUNG LADY.
With its pure and stainless breast,
 See the graceful Lily rise,
Bearing on its snowy vest
 Pearly dew-drops from the skies.
Emblem of the youthful mind—
 Fresh from Nature's pencil bright,
And by Heaven's own smile refin'd
 For unfading realms of light.
Fair One—may thy life below,
 Like that peaceful flow'ret prove, And thy spirit's fragrance flow
 O'er the fervent heart of love.
Of thyself forgetful still,
 All who dwell around thee bless, Heedful of thy Maker's will,  Beautiful in lowliness.
Long may faithful Memory dwell
 On thy virtues fond and true, And Affection's tablet tell
 Where the stainless Lily grew.
# Voice of Flowers/The Winter Bouquet

THE WINTER BOUQUET.
Flowers! fresh flowers, with your fragrance free,
Have ye come in your queenly robes to me?
Me have ye sought from your far retreat,
With your greeting lips, and your dewy feet;
And the upward glance of your radiant eye,
Like angel guests from a purer sky?
But where did ye hide when the frost drew near,
And your many sisters were blanched with fear?
Where did ye hide? with a blush as bright
As ye wore amid Eden's vales of light,
Ere the wile of the Tempter its bliss had shamed,
Or the terrible sword o'er its gate-way flam'd.
Flowers, sweet flowers, with your words of cheer,
Thanks to the friend who hath sent you here.
For this, may her blossoms of varied dye
Be the fairest and first 'neath a vernal sky;
And she be led, by their whispered lore, To the love of that land where they fade no more.
# Voice of Flowers/To the Misletoe at the Tomb of Washington

TO THE MISLETOE AT THE TOMB OF WASHINGTON.
Dark plant of Superstition's shade,
 Why lift'st thou here the cheerless eye,
Where reeks no Druid's purple blade,
To stain the Christian's hallow'd shade,
 Or dim fair Freedom's sky?
Sacred to orgies blind and base,
 Where human blood was sternly spilt,
How dar'st thou seek this holy place?
Rude parasite! whose foul embrace
 Hast wreath'd the murderer's hilt.
Where ancient Mona's foliage wept,
 Or drear Stonehenge was wrapp'd in gloom,
Thy earthless root had fitter crept,
Thy mystic garland better slept,
 Than near a Christian tomb.
What though in Maro's * fabled lore,
 To Troy's bold chief thine aid was lent,
Who dauntless trod the infernal shore,
Where sad and frowning shades of yore
 Their date of anguish spent,
Yet we, to Pluto's dreary coast,
 Passport from such as thee, disdain;
We seek our hero 'mid the host,
Where wails no grim and guilty ghost,  On Heaven's unclouded plain.
Lo! watchful o'er his honor'd clay,
 A nation sheds the filial tear;
And pilgrim's kneel, and patriots pray,
And plants of glory drink the day,—
 Why dost thou linger here?
In war the laurel wove his crest,  The olive deck'd his sylvan dome, The mournful cypress marks his rest,
Dark Misletoe! the Druid's guest,
 Hence! seek some fitter home.
# Voice of Flowers/The Willow, Poppy, and Violet

THE WILLOW, POPPY, AND VIOLET.
A child held in his hand a slight, leafless bough. It was like a supple, green wand. But it had been newly cut from the parent stock, and life still stirred in its little heart.
He sought out a sheltered spot, and planted it in the moist earth. Often did he visit it, and when the rains of summer were witheld, he watered it at the cool sunset.
The sap, which is the blood of plants, began to flow freely through its tender vessels. A tiny root, like a thread, crept downwards, and around the head was a bursting forth of faint green leaves.
Seasons passed over it, and it became a tree. Its slender branches drooped downward to the earth. The cheering sun smiled upon them—the happy birds sang to them—but they drooped still.
​ "Tree, why art thou always so sad and drooping? Am not I kind unto thee?" But it answered not—only as it grew on it drooped lower and lower, for it was a weeping willow.
The boy cast seed into the soft garden mould. When the time of flowers came, a strong, budding stalk stood there, with coarse, serrated leaves. Soon a full red poppy came forth, glorying in its gaudy dress. At its feet grew a purple violet, which no hand had planted or cherished.
It lived lovingly with the mosses, and with the frail flowers of the grass, not counting itself more excellent than they.
"Large poppy, why dost thou spread out thy scarlet robe so widely, and drink up all the sunbeams from my lowly violet?"
But the flaunting flower replied not to him who planted it. It even seemed to open its rich silk mantle still more broadly, as though it would have stifled its humble neighbors. Yet nothing hindered the fragrance of the meek violet.
The little child was troubled, and at the hour of sleep he spake to his mother of the tree that continually wept, and of the plant that overshadowed its neighbor. So she took ​him on her knee, and spake so tenderly in his ear, that he remembered her words when he became a man.
"There are some, who, like the willow, are weepers all their lives long, though they dwell in pleasant places, and the fair skies shine upon them in love. And there are others, who, like the poppy that thou reprovedst, are proud at heart, and despise the humble, whom God regardeth."
"Be thou not like them, my gentle child; but keep ever in thy breast the sweet spirit of the lowly violet, that thou mayest come at last to that blessed place, which pride cannot enter, and where the sound of weeping is unknown."
# Voice of Flowers/The Winter Hyacinth

THE WINTER HYACINTH.
How beautiful thou art, my winter flower!
Day after day thy mesh of slender roots,
That mid the water wrought their busy way,
I've watch'd intently through the chrystal vase
That deck'd my mantel-piece.
 Then, bursting forth,
Came leaves, and swelling buds, and floral bells,
Replete with fragrance: while thy graceful form,
Fair Hyacinth, attracted every eye,
And many a phrase of admiration woke,
As from a lover's lip;—while unto me
Thou wert as a companion, skill'd to smile
All loneliness away.
 But now—alas!
I mark the plague-spot stealing o'er thy brow,
And know that thou must die.
 In thy brief space,
Say—did thine inmost soul remember Him
Of whom thy rare and pencill'd beauty spake
So tenderly to us? And was thy breath
A pure and sweet ascription to His praise?
We trust it was; for those who teach of heaven
Should have its spirit too.
Yet, if like us,
Poor erring ones, thou e'er didst leave undone
What 'twas the duty of thy life to do,
Haste, and repent thee! for the time is short—
The Spoiler cometh!
 Drooping on the stem,
Methought it meekly folded its faint leaves
For the last, voiceless prayer; while unto me
A gush of fragrance was its benison.
At morn I came. No more its bosom glow'd;
A heavy sleep hung o'er its leaden eyes,—
And dews like funeral tears.
 Oh, Friend! whose gift
Was the dark bulb that veil'd this glorious flower,
And unto whom, in gratitude, I turn'd,
As its rich charms develop'd—come with me,
And let us gather from its wither'd lips
Some lingering sigh of wisdom.
 If we blend
True love to God with every kindly deed
Unto our fellow man, and steadfast stand
At duty's post, still inly bow'd, as those
Who feel the time is short—may we not wait
For sleep's last angel, full of placid trust,
Like this sweet, folded flower?
# Voice of Flowers/Wild Flowers, gathered for a Sick Friend

WILD FLOWERS, GATHERED FOR A SICK FRIEND.
Rise from the dells where ye first were born,
From the tangled beds of the weed and thorn;
Rise, for the dews of the morn are bright,
And haste away with your eyes of light.
The greenhouse princes, with gathering frown,
On your simple garbs may look haughtily down,
Yet shrink not—His finger your heads hath bowed,
Who heeds the lowly, and humbles the proud.
The tardy spring, and the frosty sky, Have meted your robes with a miser's eye,
And checked the blush of your blossoms free;
With a gentler friend your home shall be, To a kinder ear you may tell your tale
Of the zephyr's kiss, and the scented gale.
Ye are charmed! ye are charmed! and your fragrant sigh
Is health to the bosom on which ye die.
