UNDER THE LEAVES
Thick green leaves from the soft brown earth,
Happy sprinStime hath called them forth.
Fair faint promise OF summer bloom
Breathes from he fragrant, sweet perfume.
Under the leaves.
Lift them, what marvellous beauty lies
Hidden beneath from our thoughtless eyes!
Mayfowers, rosy or purest white,
Lift their cups TO the sudden light
Under the leaves.
Fair white flowers of faith and trust
Sprinsing from spirits bruised and crushed;
Blossoms of love. tinted and bright,
Touched and painted with heaven s own light
Under the leaves.
Full fresh clusters OF duty borne.
Fairest OF all in that shadow grown;
Nondrous the fragrance that sweet and rare
Comes from the flower cups hidden there
Under the leaves.
Though unseen by our vision dim,
Bud and blossom known TO Him;
Wait content for His heavenly ray
Wait till Master Himself day
Lifteth the leaves
