VOICE OF FLOWERS.


But, 'neath an everlasting beam
    They smile, where no dark cloud descends;
Theirs was that hallow'd incense stream,
                             Which heavenward tends.

Unfading, lo! they live, they bloom—
    Transplanted by His culturing hand,
Who bade them seek beyond the tomb
                             A better land.
