Happy February To Amy's Place
~Pansies~
O give me not red roses,
That early dews have wet!
They speak to me of kisses
That are remembered yet.
O bring me not white roses,
That summer winds have drest!
For once I placed white roses
Upon a quiet breast.
But bring me purple pansies
If so you wish to please,
For them I have affection;
For pansies are "heart's ease".

So springy and pretty, M.
I can't wait until all the lovely flowers start blooming and the grass turns green!

Beautiful Pansy Poem, Meg!
I am starting my greenhouses up around Feb.11th and pansies are one of the crops I’ll have.
Cheers for pansies and their happy faces!

How lovely Meg. Both the image and the poem brought memories to me as my Mother loved Pansies. She lived in a Condo in later years and each fall I would plant some Pansies in pots for her. We live on memories, don’t we?
