JANUARY JASMINE
Have you seen my jasmine drip
■ ping down my little garden
wall?
Have you seen it through the pelt
of winter rain?
Os bitter wind and frosty night
it has no fear at all,
My lovely Jason Jasmine with
its splendid golden mane.
All summer through I boasted to
my long-enduring friends
That my garden never left me
without swelling bud or
flower.
“And mark my words,” I swag
gered, “the succession never
ends,
For my faithful little garden
will not know a barren
hour.”
Yet when my last Chrysanthemum
dropped low its tawny head,
And the Christmas roses shiver
ed in the pallid winter sun,
I feared I’d been too confident,
that happy hopes were
dead,
And soon my eyes would nothing
see but oak leaves crisp and
dun.
But before the last rose faded,
there a violet dared the cold.
And then the jasmine fluttered
like a flock, of fairy birds;
Yes, it fluttered through the frost
iness and starred my wall
with gold,
And set my heart to carrolling
a song that had no words.
Have you seen it; have you seen
it—my adventurous jasmine
gay?
It has no fear of winter chill, of

snow or sleet no fear;
It flings its lovely challenge to
the January day,
First herald of the Springtime,
the jongleur of the year.
