I.
Hotly burns the amaryllis
With its stars of red;
Whitely rise the stately lilies
From the lily bed;
Withered shrinks the wax May-apple
‘Neath its parasol;
Chilly dies the violet dapple
In its earthly hall.
II.
March is but a blust’ring liar,
April a sad love,
May a milkmaid from the byre
Flirting in the grove.
June is rich in many blossoms,
She’s the one I’ll woo;
Health swells in her sunny bosoms,
She’s my sweetheart true.
(Madison Julius Cawein)
