Hollyhocks

Title:     Hollyhocks
Author: Cotton Noe [More Titles by Noe]

It may not be quite orthodox
To say so in society,
And yet I think the hollyhocks,
Of every known variety,
That bloom and bless the humble home,
Are sisters sweet of charity,--
Fair nuns that wear a beauteous cowl,--
God's priestesses unto the soul
That lives in righteous poverty.

[The end]
Cotton Noe's poem: Hollyhocks
