ARBUTUS
[ Also see Flowers Plants ]

Darlings of the forest!
  Blossoming alone
    When Earth's grief is sorest
      For her last snow-drift melts your tender buds have blown.
      - Rose Terry Cooke, Trailing Arbutus

Now the tender, sweet arbutus,
  Trail's her blossom-clustered vines,
    And the many-fingered cinquefoil
      In the shadow hollow twines.
      - Dora Read Goodale

Pure and perfect, sweet arbutus
  Twines her rosy-tinted wreath.
      - Elaine Goodale (Mrs. Charles A. Eastman),
        The First Flowers

The shy little Mayflower weaves her nest,
  But the south wind sighs o'er the fragment loam,
    And betrays the path to her woodland home.
      - Mrs. Sarah Helen Power Whitman,
        The Waking of the Heart
