Forcing
Narcissus
In a
Sunlit
Spot,
For
Holiday
Blooms.
Slender
Green
Blades
Rise
Cobra-
Like
From
The
Pot
As
Christmas
Looms.
No
Gift
Could
Bring
Better
Than
A living
Thing,
A fragile
Flower.
Though
They
Will
Only
Last
An
Hour,
They
Leave
Behind
The
Bulbs,
To
Grow
Again
In
Spring,
For
A second
Flowering.
