May-Flower

II. May-Flower.

Pink, small, and punctual, Aromatic, low,Covert in April, Candid in May, Dear to the moss, Known by the knoll, Next to the robin In every human soul. Bold little beauty, Bedecked with thee, Nature forswears Antiquity.

 

from Poems by Emily Dickinson (1890)
"New feet within my garden go"	Why?
