A violet by a mossy stoneA
Half hidden from the eyeB
Fair as a star when only oneC
Is shining in the sky WordsworthD

-
I have found violets April hath come onE
And the cool winds feel softer and the rainF
Falls in the beaded drops of summer timeG
You may hear birds at morning and at eveH
The tame dove lingers till the twilight fallsI
Cooing upon the eaves and drawing inJ
His beautiful bright neck and from the hillsK
A murmur like the hoarseness of the seaL
Tells the release of waters and the earthD
Sends up a pleasant smell and the dry leavesM
Are lifted by the grass and so I knowN
That Nature with her delicate ear hath heardO
The dropping of the velvet foot of SpringP
Smell of my violets I found them whereQ
The liquid South stole o'er them on a bankR
That lean'd to running water There's to meL
A daintiness about these early flowersS
That touches me like poetry They blowN
With such a simple loveliness amongT
The common herbs of pasture and breathe outU
Their lives so unobtrusively like heartsV
Whose beatings are too gentle for the worldW
I love to go in the capricious daysX
Of April and hunt violets when the rainF
Is in the blue cups trembling and they nodY
So gracefully to the kisses of the windZ
It may be deem'd unmanly but the wiseA2
Read nature like the manuscript of heavenC
And call the flowers its poetry Go outU
Ye spirits of habitual unrestB2
And read it when the fever of the worldW
Hath made your hearts impatient and if lifeC2
Hath yet one spring unpoison'd it will beL
Like a beguiling music to its flowN
And you will no more wonder that I loveD2
To hunt for violets in the April timeG
