The Pansy
The pansy makes such weird grimaces,
And imitates all bestial faces —
But there's a thing it couldn't do,
And that is, make a face like you.
I'm sure I've never seen another.
And that you got it from your mother.

Pansy
Oh, the blue blue bloom
On the velvet cheek
Of the little pansy’s face
That hides away so still and cool
In some soft garden place!
The tiger lily’s orange fires,
The red lights from the rose
Aren’t like the gloom on that blue cheek
Of the softest flower that grows!
