The wild primrose, all its day, <br />Displays a sweet, sweet face, <br />This charmer when in full array, <br />Has such dignity and grace. <br /> <br />Seen beneath the shady hedge, <br />This gentle flower beams bright, <br />And with its friend the grassy sedge, <br />Reaches up to the sunshine's light. <br /> <br />So delicate in its loveliness, <br />It thrives on banks in spring, <br />How can this pleasing sight possess, <br />Such beauty so outstanding. <br /> <br />The wild primrose, all its day, <br />Shines out so fair and fine, <br />And as I glimpse it, on my way, <br />The pleasure is all mine.<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-pleasing-sight/
