Excerpt from Crocus: Containing Original Poems, for Young People The Crocus. To a Cowslip blooming in January. Thou little, lovely, balmy flower, Tell me, what secret, potent power So soon could give thee birth? Dost thou not know the surly blast, The beating hail, when heav'n's o'ercast, Might crush thee to the earth? Or didst thou think, because twas mild, Natures fair offspring, beauteous child, Might leave its lowly bed; And fearless on its slender stalk Might bud, and deck the morning walk, Graced by its modest head? Indeed, I should rejoice to see Thy trembling bells neath many a tree, Hang nodding to the gale, If meek-ey'd Spring had ventured forth, And all the ruffians of the north Had bid us long farewell. But oh! I tremble when I think, Thou stand st on ruins fearful brink; And e'en this very day Should Boreas in his anger blow, He'd cover thee with frost and snow, Or sweep thee quite away. And hark! I hear the tempest rise, I mark the aspect of the skies - The fatal warning's given: Farewell, thou sweet, advent'rous flower, I leave thee in thy danger's hour, To the kind care of heaven.
