The National tribune., 1889-10-24

Il Ana VIII anu pen ana a power,
We're sitting together upon the bench
To vote on &. q. flower.
1 Standing IN line were twenty flowers
| Looking their very best,
| From the sunhower down TO the clover top,
And n creeper among the rest.
There was the rose with majestic mien.
Just above three lilies fair,
Aud sweet perfume from n helotrope
Invaded the morning air.
| An arbutus grew daisy bright,
Close by where the snowfall stood,
Aud the sweel-w illiam stalk and the cotton flower
Made as much their room AS they could
| Not far apart from n laurel bush
Was the morHing-gioTy bed;
Aud well ia front stood the goldon-rod.
NoddiHg its golden head
And with the institutions and lilies fair,
stood the violet modest aud blue;
But dearer yet to the Judges heart,
Was the pansy, grand and true.
One judge looked lower, and down at her feet
Saw "a gloriou-iy-beautiful spot,
With thousands aud thousands of faces OF blue
Heard a whisper, " FoTget-m not"
Then the judges smiled with happy smile,
And the bond Of their love grew strong;
This is the flower for ug,'' they said,
Long may IL iive-aye, long"
Lou Boutwell,, Cherry Creek, N. Y.
