American journalist and poet, Ella Wheeler Wilcox spent many years writing a daily poem for a syndicate of newspapers. This work is a collection of some of those poems, which were published in over twenty volumes.
Pink nestled in a garden bed, A rich Carnation flourished high above her, One day he chanced to see her pretty head And leaned and looked again, and grew to love her. The Moss (her humble mother) saw with fear The ardent glances of the princely stranger; With many an anxious thought and dewy tear She sought to hide her darling from this danger. The gardener-guardian of this noble bud A cruel trellis interposed between them. No common Pink should mate with royal blood, He said, and sought in every way to wean them.
