THE PINKS

THE PINKS

The pinks along my garden walksHave all shot forth their summer stalks,Thronging their buds 'mong tulips hot,And blue forget-me-not.Their dazzling snows forth-bursting soonWill lade the idle breath of June:And waken through the fragrant nightTo steal the pale moonlight.

The pinks along my garden walks

Have all shot forth their summer stalks,

Thronging their buds 'mong tulips hot,

And blue forget-me-not.

Their dazzling snows forth-bursting soonWill lade the idle breath of June:And waken through the fragrant nightTo steal the pale moonlight.

Their dazzling snows forth-bursting soon

Will lade the idle breath of June:

And waken through the fragrant night

To steal the pale moonlight.
