John
the Baptist of flowers
(a harbinger of
Spring and hope)
the crocus
the crocus
“Welcome,
wild harbinger of spring!
To this small nook of earth;
Feeling and fancy fondly cling,
Round thoughts which owe their birth,
To thee, and to the humble spot,
Where chance has fixed thy lowly lot.”
- Bernard Barton
