The Canterbury Bell.

The Canterbury Bell.
written for News and Observer
Ye little, timid, purple tinted flower;
That gladdens my heart,
AS / stroll through natures bower;
Midwinter.
Neglected, frost struck, despissd and
lonely;
Snow may glisten, and sleet may
Shine, but Cantab Bell is aot homely,
Midwinter.
Spring and summer, glowing and gay;
With blossom and song;
Sweet scented, sounded, and astray;
Greet not the glad heart Cautab Bell
does
Midwinter.
