A YELLOW SEA POPPY.
Only a yellow poppy,
That grew in the shnge and sand.
Kissed by the spray of the ocean.
Afar from the dews of the land.
Hard is thy bed. little beauty.
And few are the comforts that bless
No butterfly wing passes by thee,
Thy life Is one lonely distress
Yet thou art golden in beauty
And delicate, too, in thy form
There! as I lifted thy glory.
'Tis shattered before the rude storm.
Flower, thou art parChed in this desert,
Too dry for one tear of complaint;
Around thee hard stones. and above
Fierce rays-thou wilt wither and faint.
"Oh. no. said the poppy mot so:
God made me TO blossom out here;
My relocated brothers. I know,
Were formed for different sphere
But God wanted one little flower
To grow where other bloom grew,
And He has provided my dover,
Where you think the comforts are few.
And IL He has called you to be
W here all things barren and bare
Then learn this blest lesson from me
Gods flowers in desert are fair.
The yellow sea poppy God made
To grow amid shingle and sand;
And here l have always His aid.
To me tbs good, fruitful land"
