REJUVENATION by ALICE LOUISE CARY

First Line: A GARDEN 'BED'; PERHAPS THEY CALL IT SO
Last Line: TO GREET THE GOLDEN GLORY OF THE SKIES.
Subject(s): BEDS; SLEEP;

A garden "bed"; perhaps they call it so
When bulbs beneath a coverlet of snow
Are tucked by Mother Earth to rest awhile
And dream till April, with her lovely smile,
Throws off the blanket, bids them wake and rise
To greet the golden glory of the skies.
