REFLECTION (2) by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: WHERE CLOSING WATER LILIES ARE
Last Line: HOW WATER-LILIES GROW.
Subject(s): FLOWERS; LILIES;

Where closing water-lilies are
I've sometimes seen the evening star
A-blossom just below,
And I have wondered if there be
No pools in heaven where souls may see
How water-lilies grow.
