Classic and Contemporary Poetry

BLOSSOM by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: FOR THIS THE FRUIT, FOR THIS THE SEED
Last Line: FORGETS UTILITY.
Subject(s): PLANTS; PLANTING; PLANTERS;
FOR this the fruit, for this the seed,
For this the parent tree;
The least to man, the most to God --
A fragrant mystery
Where Love, with Beauty glorified,
Forgets Utility.
