Written for the Democratic Advocate
By CHARLES t. WRIGHT. g
Low down in the earth sleep the flowers;
No beauty nor fragrance they know.
Deep hidden from eyes that are longing @
To welcome them up from below.
How dark is the place Of their hiding,
How like the black depths OF a tomb.
Yet we know they are safely abiding
And peacefully waiting to bloom.
The earth holds them locked In her BOSOM
Not prisoned nor pressed to their doom,
But nourished, and warmed, and protected
Until they are ready to bloom.
The winds sweep in bitterness DER them,
They shrink to the ground and the gloom;
Not to die, but to sunderland gather
New strength for the day Of their bloom.
With laugh that is cruel and mocking
The north-wind is waving his plume,
But safe from his fury, the flowers
Are patiently waiting to bloom;
And up from the darkness and shadow.
Up out OF the stiffness and gloom,
They will come with radiant spiendor
When they are ready 10 bloom,
ColTdine, Pa.
