Five little buds grouped round the parent stem, Growing in sweet airs, beneath gracious skies, Watched tenderly from sunrise to sunrise, Lest blight, or chill, or evil menace them. Five small and folded buds, just here and there Giving a hint of what the bloom may be, When to reward the long close ministry The buds shall blossom into roses fair.
